Stretching After Workouts: The Underrated, Ridiculously Hot Secret You Need to Try
You know that feeling when you’re face down - ass up, hamstrings screaming thank you for the deep, intense stretch? All sweaty with an appreciative body and whatever cool down music you’re only vaguely present to because you’re still coming down from the endorphins. Sorry, are we not on the same page that stretching after workouts is ridiculously hot?
It’s so good.
“I have mixed feelings about the workouts sometimes. I do them for my mood, for the serotonin boost.”
Sometimes they feel amazing and sometimes I go through the motions because it makes such a difference in how I feel overall. But the after? The one bead of sweat dripping down my back while I stretch and cool my body back down?
That moment is golden every single time.
If you haven’t had this experience, I highly recommend queuing up your best s3x playlist next time you do your movement practice. If not through the whole workout, for the stretching at the end. Hold the poses a little longer. Linger in the feelings of pull and release. Let yourself get lost in the memory of the last time you heard that song. You’ll thank me later.
