Stretching and Mobility for Runners: Why you should stretch and why mobility is different.

Run Painless

In order for stretching to be effective it has to be performed consistently. That means daily. There is good evidence that static stretching should be performed only after running (especially on race/interval days) and rolling should be done before you run/race. My favorite roller is the Vector T-pin (www.tpinmuscletherapy.com use code “BRIANB” at checkout for a 10% discount) and once you see its patented design you will understand why it’s the only one I use now. Also you want to hold those static stretches at least 30-60 seconds with longer being better for the muscles overall.
