Tips to get the most from it

  • Breathe slowly and do not bounce in the stretch.
  • Stretch to a light pull, never to pain.
  • Do it right after your leg workout, while your muscles are still warm.
  • Stretching eases soreness and helps you recover. Legs slim down when total body fat goes down.
