With the warming weather, spring sports will be moving outdoors for practices and games. This transition brings an increased risk of injuries. Doctors are emphasizing the importance of pre-game warm-up, especially after months of being indoors.
Professional athletes prioritize stretching before games, highlighting its importance in preventing injuries. Dr. Atul Kaushal, a physician and medical director with AmourCBD, recommends stretching before any physical activity to increase flexibility and prevent injuries.
If you find yourself short on time before practice or a game, stretching after your workout can still provide benefits to your body. The warmth in your muscles after a workout can make stretching even more effective in preventing injuries. Remember to prioritize stretching as part of your regular routine to keep your body flexible and resilient.
