Want to perform at your best and stay injury-free? Have a go at these three simple stretches, as prescribed by former Olympic snowboarder, Aimee Fuller.
With Team GB going from strength to strength at the Tokyo Olympics, their 13 gold medals (so far) may have inspired you to take your training to the next level.
Though it may not feel as satisfying as lifting a PB or shaving minutes off your 10k time, stretching is actually one of the most important parts of any athlete’s routine – particularly when it comes to preventing injury and maintaining optimum fitness. So if you want to up the ante with your workouts, adding some key stretches is a great place to start.
