After weight training
Stretch your whole body after the session
Weight training works different muscles depending on the session. This routine runs through five stretches covering your upper and lower body, standing then on the floor, to relax everything after the effort.
~5 min · 5 movements · standing then on the floor
Hands clasped behind back
0:30Opens the chest and counterbalances the forward-rounded posture we all develop in daily life.
Overhead triceps stretch
1:00Stretches the back of the arm and top of the shoulder — often-forgotten areas that stiffen over time.
Runner's lunge
1:00Deeply stretches the hip flexors, where the muscle shortens from sitting or running.
Lying hamstring stretch
1:00Stretches the back of the thigh without straining the back. Ideal if you have a sensitive lower back.
Figure 4 stretch
1:00Stretches the deep hip muscles and glutes, which often tighten from prolonged sitting.
