STRETCHING

When done correctly, the effects of stretching are beneficial. It loosens and relaxes your muscles, and minimises the risk on injuries. When you stretch, you shouldn't tense up as this will not give you a very effective stretch and has potential to cause injury if you're pushing your body too far. Remember to breathe and relax.
