So, I was watching the big game the other day. I think I can say “big game”, I dont think the NFL owns the copyrights to “big game” yet. Anyway, you know how the actual televised event lasts about 10 hours, with the pregame, game, post game, and everything.
I’m watching the pre game, and I see something that clicks with me. It showed some of the players stretching. I thought to myself… I do that! Stretching is a big part of P90X and all of the Beachbody programs. It is a very important part of any exercise or fitness routine that a lot of people are missing out on.
Why do people miss out on stretching? Well, here’s my take on it.
- They dont know how. Everyone knows about curls, and other simple exercises, but not everyone knows what stretches to do for what muscles
- They think its boring. Stretching doesnt have the glamour of “getting the job done” that pumping out a few sets does
- Time. They are limited on time as it is and dont want to waste it stretching
- They dont think it’s important
One of the big surprises I had was how much P90X pushed stretching. Every routine, before and after you are stretching, and there is an entire routine of just stretching. P90X makes stretching an important part of the at home fitness routine because stretching is important, but P90X does it in style. It is very fluid how the add it to the routines to where you almost dont even realize you are doing them. In addition, P90X is helping to teach very important fitness basics.
If stretching is important to NFL players, then you know it needs to be important in your fitness regiment. Whatever fitness program you are doing, make sure stretching is included, or you will end up with injuries.
