Outdoor Fitness – The Four Basic Stretches

May 23, 2019

Try these four stretches to prevent injury and enhance recovery.

With Outdoor Fitness workouts you may find that your hips, hamstrings, quadriceps and calves get a little tight due to the variety in terrain – inclines, declines, steps, stairs, traversing on rocky surfaces.

While technically you don’t need to stretch during your warm up session, we recommend that after your workouts, you include the “Four Basics”—Hip Flexors, hamstrings, quadriceps and calves. If lunges are part of your workout, include the adductor or inner thighs as your fifth stretch.

You have options! Read, listen or view the stretches with the links below.
