Healthy Lifestyle
 
This month's health tip:
 
Stretching during 'Cool Down' after exercising is more important than stretching during the 'Warm Up' (pre-exercise activity).  Why? Think of your body as a piece of taffy candy.  If it is cold & hard and stretched too far, it can snap and break. The same applies to your muscles. Muscles are more proned to damage if stretched cold.
 
This doesn't mean that you shouldn't stretch at all before exercising....however, avoid "ballistic stretches" which involve bouncing & jerking. So, be sure to stretch, about 5-10 minutes after your workout, to allow greater flexibility & agility of the muscles and avoid blood pooling, muscle soreness & cramping later!

Greetings!
