Whilst I’m not a medical proffessional, I highly doubt daily stretching could be harmful, provided the muscles are adequately warm. Whilst doing the same excersices everyday can be detrimental, I believe doing the same stretches everyday is important to maintain and increase flexibility.

Absolutely not. Stretch has helped me release stress and be more flexible. But I don’t do it every day 'cause I always forget lol. But if you feel like your body needs a break, don’t hesitate to take a day off.

I feel better now after 4 days of stretching. Back hurts less. My mood is better in the mornings. Small reason to be proud and happy in the morning.

It’s always good to stretch the body it ensures that blood flows through your entire body and relaxes the fascia to keep you flexible do it as often as you can

Alyssia Q.

No and it starts to feel great. I mean gentle stretches not all out exertion. Just gets blood flowing and everything moving better

No, it is not. Stretching every day helps you becoming more flexible and reaching your goals… but as with everything, you should listen to your body.

No! You need to stretch and warm up before any strenuous exercise so that you won’t hurt yourself. Stretching is unlikely to hurt you.

Absolutely not, stretching every day, and truly taking the time to challenge every bit of my body, continuously builds my flexibility and simple body strength. In addition to that, I am far less sore and achy than I was before I started stretching every day.

I think stretching everyday is extremely beneficial for one’s health. It allows the muscles to flex and move reaching out and gaining flexibility. Stretching also helps with regulating blood flow and circulation. It’s relaxing and is essential if you workout regularly. But don’t over stretch! Stream has at a comfortable level and safety first not every stretch is a good one!

It’s definitely not a bad thing because I started to feel more energize and my muscles are not as stiff after I stretch.
