I am a 30 year old woman training gymnastics recreationally for last 6 months, around 5'5, 135 pounds. Never done it before, and find it interesting. I am in generally good shape, do aerobics, and light weight training. How long should I stretch per day? My gymnast coach said to stretch twice 2x a day. I like to stretch Once a day and Everyday for 45 min, generally in evening.
I also stretch Both the Legs And the Shoulders/back everyday. What are basically the training recommendations for adult females? Should I separate the legs and backs on separate days? Am I overdoing it (Everyday, 45 min)? Sometimes I feel slightly tired, but I continue to work and stretch.
Note: I do passive stretching everyday. Every other day, I add in "Active Flexibility Stretching", which is slightly different.
