Walking Running
How should a teen stretch before walking/running 4kms?
Just started to walk and run trails, totally forgot how stretching is suppose to go (and how much i need it)
Would be alternating between walking (more so) and running for 4kms at a time. Two or three times a day. Quiet out of shape, and a teen, if that matters.
Any good links or help would be appreciated.
Doing it twice a day so might as well find out how to do it properly right? Avoid unnecessary pain. Some exercizes…how long to hold em for….how it would help, all helpfull. Thanks!
DON’T stretch before you run, only after as your muscles aren’t warmed up. You can do the following warm up before running (or any exercise): 30 seconds each of jumping jacks, arm circles, trunk rotations, front lunges, side lunges, high knees and body weight squats.
