SUGGESTED STRETCHES

never bounce.
1. Toe Touch Stretch
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly
bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and
shoulders to relax as you reach down toward your
toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then
relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back
of knees and back.
2. Hamstring Stretch
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the
opposite foot
toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of
your extended leg.Reach toward your toes as far
as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat
3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower
back and groin.
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward
and place your hands against a wall. Keep your
back leg straight and your back foot flat on the
floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move
your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then
relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further
stretching of the achilles tendons, bend your back
leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons and
ankles.
4. Quadriceps Stretch
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back
and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your
heel as close to your buttocks
as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3
times
for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
5. Inner Thigh Stretch

knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area
as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
