In static stretching, which you will learn on our site, you should hold each position for at least 40 seconds. Better is 1 minute. We ourselves sometimes hold positions for up to 2 minutes.
Your minimum goal should be 3 times a week. Of course, if you make it a daily routine, it's even better.
This is up to you. Depending on your schedule and what you can do. We often do it in the morning as a perfect start into the day.
Definitely. Especially in the beginning, you will notice a good stretching session during the next day.
Many people stretch too weakly, so it has no effect. Stretching too much, on the other hand, can lead to injury. We define the optimal stretch pain so that you can endure the position without holding your breath or gritting your teeth. Try it out and get closer!
