Video Breakdown
**Here’s how stretching will help build muscles.
0:27 (#1) Stretching helps you get a larger range of motion by creating greater flexibility. A larger range of motion will allow you to fully train the entire muscle and give you the muscular development you’re looking for.
1:22 (#2) Stretching keeps you safe. Being more flexible, your chances of injury is greatly reduced. Example: Minimized muscle tears, strains and pulled muscles.
**Stretches (Hold all stretches for 5 to 10 seconds)
2:26 Leg and back stretch. Sit down with your feet spread apart and stretch towards your left, right legs respectively.
3:48 Pigeon stretch: Have one leg in front and one leg back as you lean forward. Switch legs and complete the same stretch.
4:32 Forward fold: Place feet straight out and together. Lean forward and focus pushing your stomach to your thighs.
