Stretch inner thighs in bed

Mel is stretching her inner thighs and groin region in bed after a long day at work.

Flexible inner thighs are good for general mobility and will help for running, walking, swimming, biking etc. The purpose of the muscles in your inner thighs, called adductors, is to pull your legs together. The adductors are engaged but squeezing your legs together.

This is one of the easiest inner thigh and groin stretches you can do and it’s perfect to do in bed just before going to sleep at night.

HOW:
Lay on your back in bed and put the soles of your feet together while bending your legs. Gently open up your legs by pressing your knees out to the sides. You can adjust the stretch to fit your agility level by positioning your feet close or far away from you. It’s easier with your feet further away. If needed, you can place your hands on your thighs to add a bit of extra pressure. Hold the position for the desired amount of time and then repeat.

Don’t walk up stairs, RUN!

Sorry no illustration today! I’m currently working on the last pieces of the script for the Nano Workout book, which is due in a couple of weeks. But once that is done I’m back in full speed.

Today’s message is: Run up stairs, don’t just walk. And for an extra intense experience run with high knees.

You can’t get a much more intense workout than running in stairs at high pace, even if it’s just a few floors. What’s also great is that with this kind of intense interval exercise your body will continue to burn calories even when you have reached your floor.

Office chair leg stretchers – get flexible while at work

Situation: Sitting down, while at work
Stretches: Legs

Sit on the edge of the chair and lean forward and grab hold of your left foot with your righ hand. Without arching your back, bring your belly towards your thighs. You should feel the tension on the back of your left leg. Keep the stretch for about 10 seconds and repeat a couple of times before switching leg.
