Stretching chest: Version 2

When to do it:
• Do it after a workout as a cool down activity
• You need to stretch your chest after doing chest press, playing any racquet sports, basketball or any pushing activity


How to do it:
• Hold the stretch for 30 seconds
• Extend your arm, hold on to a tree, a post or something similar with your hand to stabilize your arm. Turn your torso in the opposite direction from the extended arm. You should feel a stretch in your chest zone


Things to pay attention to:

• If your arm is at about 45 degrees to your body you will be stretching the upper part of your pecs, if it is perpendicular to your body, you will be stretching its medium part and if it is at about 120 degrees to your body, you’ll be stretching the lower part of your pecs
• You shouldn’t feel any pain, just feel some tension (it may be unpleasant, but shouldn’t be painful)
