Cool down workout for Runners
It’s important to cool down after a run because stretching helps avoid muscle pain, prevents injuries and assists in removal of lactic acid from your muscles. These stretches are designed for after your run when your muscles are warm, just don’t forget to breathe deeply as your muscles need oxygen to relax.
This cool down focuses on lengthening and gradually stretching out muscles that support you during your run. Think hip flexors, calves and hamstrings!
