| Stretch Tip - 2 to 1 |
|
With our stretch tips we want to change the way you stretch, so you achieve lasting changes in your posture, flexibility and performance (at work or at play).
Commonly we stretch both sides of our body for the same length of time and with the same amount of attention. However, due to injuries, poor posture, repetitive movements and surgeries we end up tighter on one side.
Try stretching the "loose" side once and the "tight" side twice. For example my right leg is shorter, I injured it nearly 20 years ago and had surgery almost 30 years ago therfore I need to focus on stretching my right hip flexors and quadriceps twice. I first stretch the right, then stretch my left and finally finish with the right side.
Keep the 2 to 1 ratio in mind to achieve a more balanced body.
