Some stretcing advice from Karen

Posted on 19/05/2012 by Rajiv Ratan

A few weeks ago Karen Simpson ran a session for club members on stretching and flexibility. Everyone who attended, learned a lot from the session, and used it as a chance to examine their flexibility and how it relates to their running performance and impacts on injury.

Karen has kindly provided the worksheet from the session which can be seen on the ERC website. These are general notes on why and how to stretch.

Another session for club members with Karen has been proposed, details will appear on the ERC website when it is arranged.

If you would like to get in touch with Karen to arrange a sports therapy session her details can be found below:
