7 Essential Stretches with Austin Martinez

In this week’s episode, Austin Martinez, Director of Education at
StretchLab describes the 7 Essential Stretches for runners and
why we need to include flexibility and strength workouts in
addition to just running miles for injury prevention and optimum
performance as a runner. These stretches focus on the following
areas of our bodies: Feet, Lower Legs, Quads, Hamstrings, Glutes,
Spine, Core, and Upper Body. (Ok, that’s really 8, but Upper Body
is easily overlooked for runners and Austin gave us a bonus
stretch).
