Continuing our series on Cross Country Skiing and stretching... Post-training or competition: • Cool down. A cool down allows the body, in particular the cardiovascular system, to gradually return to its resting state. A cool-down reduces your chances of becoming dizzy or fainting after exercise, allows any waste products that build up from exercise such as lactic acid to dissipate and may reduce your chance of having Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS). Cool down by gradually reducing your intensity of movement. Slowing your skiing pace right down or even walking once you have removed your gear would be an appropriate way to cool down. Competitive athletes may choose to head indoors and use the stationary bike for 5-10 minutes. • Static stretches: Commence your stretching regime directly after a short cool-down, before the muscles have cooled completely. Static stretching at this time helps to improve any flexibility deficits that may be present.
