About Stretch Guru
Muscle and joint flexibility helps you look better, feel better, perform better and avoid injury. Try these easy to follow programs after you exercise and your body will love you!
All stretches are Static Stretching techniques, which involve passively stretching a warm muscle to the point of mild discomfort and holding. Doctors recommend holding stretches anywhere from 10 to 60 seconds, so you can choose a Default Stretch Length in the My Settings section that works for you. You can also choose a Default Program so that when you open Stretch Guru, it will automatically launch your favorite set of stretches. You can also do this by hitting the Quick Start button. Voice prompts will guide you through your routine and if you prefer the vibrate mode, please mute your device.
The Top 6 Stretches takes you through the most important ones for your sport. These are the major muscles used and that often cause injury if not kept flexible. If you have just a few minutes, use this program after exertion. If you have a little more time, chose the Top 12 Stretches. If you’d like a more extensive program, choose the Top 18 Stretches. You can also create three Custom Programs in the Routines tab and rename them to suit your needs.
We have limited this program to the best 18 stretches for each sport to keep Stretch Guru simple and easy to complete. Stretch Guru gives you 3 seconds between sides and 5 seconds between stretch types to reposition. To learn how to perform the stretches correctly, please go to the Stretches section and click or swipe through the various screens. For most of the Stretch Guru editions, the stretches are mainly standing stretches, as we don’t always have access to a dry mat post exertion.
If you find this Stretch Guru app helpful, please go to the Apple App store or Android Market and search for Stretch Guru programs pertaining to other sports and disciplines. More information can be found at http://loriliving.com/stretch-guru/ and on Facebook at Stretch Guru.

[2012-08-06] A Google User: Great Little App! I took up running a couple of months ago, and have found that after a run I often can't think straight enough to remember my stretches. This app is great! You can choose from one of the preset routines (6, 12 or 18 stretches) or create your own. You can also set how long you would like to hold each stretch (10, 20, 30 etc. seconds) There is a countdown timer during each stretch. When you press start, a female voice cues you on each stretch: "Now stretch your left calf muscle"... "OK, switch to your right calf muscle"... Some of the stretches contain further verbal reminders ("make sure your shoulders, hip and knee are all in alignment" for example) Each stretch has an accompanying illustration and there is a database with all 18 stretches with full instructions. These stretches target mostly lower, but some upper body work. I chose the 8 I need the most and set up a routine for those. I just open the app, press start and follow the cues. All stretches can be done outside with only a raised surface (like a bench or step) and a solid structure (wall, bench, post) to brace yourself for a few of the stretches. This app filled a need I had and I am perfectly happy with it! |
