It’s great that you’re focusing on stretching! Ideally, you should incorporate a variety of stretches that target all major muscle groups, not just the ones you worked out. Aim for 5-10 different stretches daily, holding each for 15-30 seconds. This will enhance flexibility, prevent injury, and promote overall muscle recovery. Creating a routine that includes these stretches can help establish a meaningful daily ritual, supporting your journey towards lasting healthy habits.

No, stretch the whole body. This maintains overall flexibility. The region that you exercised should be stretched, but that is a post-exercise stretch to cool the body part down and prevent delayed onset muscle soreness. It helps reduce microtrauma to the muscles.
