I’m doing this only for a couple of weeks and I admit to say that I feel more energised. Even with those 3 minutes of stretching.
I stretch sometimes for just a few seconds to target the area that feels right, but most of the time I take about 3 minutes to find the right spots and work them out a bit.
Less than a minute. Stretching is important to keep your muscles relaxed and not stiff. So it’s better to stretch longer.
Hi! I stretch for 20-25 minutes every day. I start with the guided stretching session that is available (it’s free) on this app, then I do some stretching on a chair ( search it in YouTube if you want “ my ultimate deskercise routine “). Have fun!
I typically stretch in the morning and in the evening between 10-20 minutes. I do Baxter Bell’s Morning Series and a few other asanas which gets my body warmed up for the day. I actually do this series in bed before I get up out of bed. It allows me to wake up gently and not feel stiff. In the evening I do a series of slow sensory yoga postures, or SATYA movements as taught by Tias Little. This series of posture helps slow down the breathe and heart rate before bedtime making for a better nights sleep.
I strech a few times a day, before morning exercise, before and after gym session and before bedtime. Usually 3-5minutes.
Usually 2 minutes before I get distracted. Then I return to stretching multiple times throughout the day, short sessions of 10-15 seconds every hour. I want to change to extended active stretching sessions preworkout such as 5 minutes of lunges, walking, and aerobic stretching.
As long as I have time for. Usually I do the sun salutations in the ‘make me fabulous’ area but if I don’t have much time I just do a quick stretching routine
It depends. I typically stretch at night and this gives me time to “meditate”. I’m able to let myself unwind before I go to bed and think about my day and the day ahead of me. I’d say I stretch for minimum, 30 minutes.
From one minute to 15 minutes, depending on how much time I have got. However I always hold each stretch for 30 seconds in order to benefit fully from it. (Short routine just means less stretches.)
