Are you taking care of yourself during the weekend? ✨🤍

Let’s have a word… While stretching is far too often cut in workout routines, especially when time is short (yess, I’m guilty of this, too! 😬), it is well worth every second!
Here’s why:
1️⃣ Increases flexibility: Stretching enhances your range of motion, making your movements technically better and more comfortable during workouts. 🔝
2️⃣ Speeds up recovery: By improving blood flow and reducing lactic acid buildup, it helps your muscles recover faster, leaving you less sore 💪
3️⃣ Releases tension: Stretching reduces muscle tightness, improving your body alignment and posture while relieving stress. 📈
4️⃣ Prevents injuries: Regular stretching strengthens muscle balance and joint stability, reducing the risk of strains or pulls. ✅
So, Fam, if your workout buddy tries to skip stretching next time, convince them to do just three exercises-once you start, it’s much easier to commit. Namaste! ✨🧘‍♀️
