But after 1-2 weeks of that 10-15 second pose, add 5 seconds to each pose, until you reach 30 seconds on every pose. It is perfectly ok to up one pose\u2019s time per week, to gradually get all of your poses up to 30 seconds. To really push yourself, you can probably do a max of 60 seconds per pose, so if you feel like you need more of a stretch or challenge, work your way up to 60 seconds on whatever pose you want! <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Wenke F.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">For stretching I would recommend to hold a position 30-45 seconds. That way your muscle will be able to properly stretch out for a good amount of time. It is of high necessity to stretch for more than 30 seconds after working out (as well as exhibiting the correct stretching techniques) in order to not overstrain your muscle after for example running. However, if this is not the case, holding your stretch position for 30 seconds will suffice. Sometimes I stretch a bit more after 30 seconds to really get rid of the negative energy or to get prepared for my day<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Aracy S.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I have read that you should hold a stretch for at least 20 seconds no more than 30.  Less than 20 doesn\u2019t achieve a lot more than 30 over works the muscle you are stretching.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Heike Q.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I like to hold each stretch until I feel that muscle&#x2F;position slightly relax into the stretch.  Sometimes that means holding for 5 seconds; other times means holding for 30 seconds. I also like to get a few deep breaths in with any stretches affecting my back or shoulders. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Adriana F.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I think 10 to 15 seconds for each position is adequate enough, depending on each one, they could even last a little longer. And in total everything should come to 1 or 2 minutes quite easily especially if doubling up sides, repeating stretching positions etc.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Rosa E.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Well I think it depends from which part of the body you stretching stretching&#8230;generally if is just to alleviate some numb limb after sitting a couple of hours at the pc, sure 15-20 seconds are enough to relax your back or shoulders muscles. Just do it often, like every couple of hours etc..Obviously properly stretching after a workout is a different story, you need to know the right movements and correct positions, and invest at least 15-20 minutes. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kirk O. 15 seconds is a good length of time for each stretching position.
