Stretch Before You Work Out

Why should I stretch before working out ?

Well a lot of people don't know about this or they just don't want to do it, this is a common mistake among people at the gym. Stretching before work out is really important, it can prevent injuries and a lot of stuff related to that.

I often see this happen among  teenagers, they enter into the gym and go directly to a set or what ever they do. I just think if they realize that can lead to bad news, but sometimes they don't listen to advices.


Different types of stretching


Benefits

There are a lot of benefits, the one and most important is that by stretching brings blood supply to our tissues. It make our muscles to be ready for a working set, also it provide flexibility, prevent injuries.

Effects

If you don't stretch before you work out , this would lead to a bad workout and it will decrease your performance. For example, if you want to do a max for Bench Press you wouldn't get your 100% on this. Why ? because you didn't stretch, your muscles aren't ready for this big impact. Also your muscles will feel sore at the end of your workout, it may result in cramps or even worst injuries.


In conclusion

Please stretch before you work out, not only to prevent injuries but also to give your 100% on every working set you have.
