3m 2s
Incorporating a functional conditioning practice transitions your body into a state of rest and reduces the likelihood of injury as you recover and resume your daily activities. Relax your body into a slow rhythm of shadow boxing before stretching out with a few static stretches: Knee to Chest, Supine Twist, and a Prone Quad Stretch. This intentional sequence will release large muscle groups, gradually relax, and decrease your heart rate. Appreciate the work you put in, the progress you made, and don’t forget to hydrate!
