Precautions for stretching:
1, left-right symmetry:
Stretching people's body has left-right asymmetry to some extent. There must be an easy stretch side and a difficult side. Therefore, when doing the same stretching action on the left and right sides, pay attention to the side that is more difficult to stretch. It is very important to reduce the difference between the left and right sides and improve the balance of running posture.
2. Stretching sequence:
When a specific stretching action is performed, in addition to stretching the target muscle group, other muscle groups supporting cooperation are also stretched. When stretching, the synergetic muscle group should be stretched first, which has the advantage that the stretching degree of the target muscle group is not limited by the synergetic muscle group.
For example, when stretching the muscles behind the thighs, it will also stretch the gluteus maximus and calf triceps to a certain extent. Therefore, the stretching effect of these muscle groups will be better after stretching the thighs first.
