5-Minute Cool Down Routine for Post-Workout Recovery | WebMD

Описание: This essential 5-minute cool-down and recovery routine, led by fitness professional Adam Michael Brewer, is the perfect way to finish any workout. Taking the time for a post-workout stretch is crucial for reducing muscle soreness and improving your long-term flexibility.

This segment guides you through gentle, light stretches targeting all major muscle groups, including the hamstrings, quadriceps, and groin. You'll also loosen up the upper body with specific movements for shoulder retraction, shoulder protraction, and thoracic spine rotations. The routine finishes with moments of stillness and mindful movement to transition your body from active training back to a rested state.
