Stretching is a very important part of your swimming routine. It helps athleticism, increases flexibility and guards against the risk of injury. As swimming is an all-body workout, try to stretch all of the major muscle groups before you swim.
A few things to remember when stretching:
• Stretch when muscles are warmed-up.
• Hold each stretch for 20-30 seconds.
• Do not bounce.
• Do not stretch to the point of feeling pain, otherwise you risk tearing a muscle.
• Do not hold your breath. Take deep breaths and relax.
You’re welcome. 💦💦
