Lead: I believe that everyone is familiar with running, a simple way of exercise. Running is suitable for many people, old people and children. Running can exercise and shape a perfect figure. Running can also help us get rid of a lot of excess fat, but there is a more important link after running, which is stretching.

1. What does stretching do after running?

Because our muscles are torn during running, stretching after running can help us stretch our leg muscles and promote their recovery, but if we don't stretch in time after running.

Lactic acid in our body is easy to accumulate in our legs, and leg pain will occur the next day, so we must stretch well after running to avoid lactic acid accumulation in our legs the next day, which will lead to leg pain. At the same time, stretching can also help us shape perfect leg lines, prevent the formation of small thick legs and muscular legs, and affect the overall aesthetic feeling of our body.

Second, after running, you can do the following three stretching actions to fully stretch your legs.

Anterior thigh extension

Stretching the front of the thigh is mainly to stretch the muscles of the front of the thigh. Be sure to pay attention when stretching the front side of the thigh. If your body is not stable enough, you can find a support to keep it stable, and then grab the ankle part of one of our legs with your hands, so that the heel is as close to the hip as possible, and slowly feel the stretching feeling of the front thigh muscles.

Inner thigh extension

The action of stretching the inner thigh is mainly aimed at stretching the muscles of the inner thigh. First of all, we stood up straight and let our legs separate. We felt a slight stretch on the inner thigh, and our feet were separated by about one meter. Then we can complete the stretching action by moving the center of gravity to the left and then to the right, and slowly feel the feeling of stretching the inner thigh.

Stretching at the back of thigh

The purpose of stretching the back of the thigh is to stretch the muscles of the back of the thigh. First, we sit on the ground, keeping our hips close to the ground and the back of our legs close to the ground. Then we straighten our backs, raise our arms, straighten our arms and let our palms spread out. Then we bend down and let our palms touch the soles of our feet as much as possible, and slowly feel the stretching feeling on the back of our thighs, which can also help us relax our backs, stretch our backs and stretch our spine.

Conclusion: Although running is a simple exercise suitable for ordinary people, it is also a relatively basic exercise, which can be carried out without any fitness foundation, but it must be remembered that stretching is a relatively simple exercise during running, but if it is not stretched, it will easily affect the overall leg shape of the legs.
