1, relieve body aches after exercise.
Because lactic acid accumulates in the body after exercise, muscle soreness will occur 2-3 days after exercise. Adequate stretching in time after exercise can accelerate the elimination of lactic acid in the body and effectively improve body soreness.
Step 2 prevent muscle stiffness
After exercise, the muscles of the body are in a state of tension and congestion, and the muscles will be more tense and stiff than usual. If you don't stretch and relax in time, your muscles will be in a state of tension and rigidity for a long time. Over time, your muscles will get used to this state, and your body will become stiff and inflexible.
Step 3 accelerate detoxification
During exercise, a series of chemical reactions will occur in the body, producing some "garbage" in the body. Stretching after exercise can accelerate blood circulation, dredge veins, and accelerate the body's discharge of garbage generated during exercise.
4. Make your figure better.
Stretching after exercise can lengthen muscles and restore their elasticity. Sticking to stretching will make the body lines softer and smoother and the limbs more slender.
5, quickly restore physical strength
After exercise, the body will be in a state of tension and fatigue. At this time, the way to quickly restore physical strength is not to sit still, but to stretch. Stretching can quickly transport nutrients in the body to the needed tissues, while the body is at rest, achieving the effect of rapid recovery in the body.
6, accelerate the absorption of nutrients
About 30 minutes after exercise, you need to supplement your body with nutrition. Stretching in time after exercise is helpful to supplement nutrition after exercise, accelerate the absorption and utilization efficiency of nutrition, and make the body healthier and stronger.
