Stretches for you and others.


Pic of the pain.

Notice how all the tendons run along all of the muscles that you have been hitting hard. If you strengthen a muscle and do not stretch the tendon things can become too tight and snap or create other problems.

Stretch and RICE. Yoga or Tai Chi is good for stretching as well.
