Exercising and stretching are two related activities that have become a vital part of daily life for many individuals. While they may seem unrelated, the truth is that these two go hand in hand, making each exercise session more effective and less painful. In this blog post, we will explore the curious fact of how doing stretching before or after exercise can make all the difference in how you feel during your workout.
The Body Remembers
Every time you engage in vigorous physical activity, your muscles contract, pulling on the connective tissues that hold your muscles together. Over time, these contractions can cause permanent structural changes in these tissues, leading to stiffness, pain, and soreness. This is why stretching is so important—it helps to release these tension points in the body, allowing them to return to their normal size and shape.
One of the best-known benefits of stretching is improved range of motion (ROM). When you range both forward and backward muscles regularly throughout your day, it increases the ball and socket joint’s range in both forward flexion and sideways movement. You’ll also find that as your muscles start to stretch, they become tauter.
Increasing Muscle Tension
Most people would recognize tension as a painful sensation caused by muscular activity during periods of overuse. Nonetheless, tension can be a valuable tool for achieving certain gains in strength if it is applied during peak muscle building periods. Muscles requiring high force production (like core muscles but not only) require this type of exercise in addition to other modalities such as weight lifting or plyometric training to build strength. When taken during shorter intervals throughout training sessions combined with appropriate activity focussed on multiple muscle groups simultaneously (also known as CrossFit), muscle tension remains elevated throughout training sessions thereby increasing muscle function without fatigue typical after strength training periods lasting longer than ten minutes! This technique aims at achieving bigger muscles while prioritizing toning goals rather than bulking up muscle by increasing protein intake instead when combined with high effort aerobic activity focusing on cardiovascular health without too much strenuous weight lifting involved reduces those “beer bellies” while still allowing for strength gains from both activities performed simultaneously! This optimal loading strategy provides ideal results regardless what sport participant has been playing most their life!
You can achieve No More Painful Stretching by learning to apply some of these techniques during training sessions every day. Below are some simple stretches that can help stretch out your muscles before starting one and also those which you can do beneath during session breaks until transition later on a certain set out movements which ultimately increases flexibility later though likely no more advanced stretches will be available: –
