Introduction to Stretching
It has long been suggested that performing a warm up and a cool down before and after sporting activity can help reduce the incidence of injury and promote recovery following training and matches. Central to these practices is improving flexibility through stretching. Here, we guide you through the science of stretching, explain the various techniques for the level of stretching appropriate to requirements, and provide a comprehensive programme of stretches. So let's get started.
