Nick's Travel Training Series - Post-Travel Stretches

Bridge fans, it is great to have you back to the third episode of our four-part travel training series. Today, I will take you through a sequence of post-travel stretches that has helped my athletes overcome their trips and prepare for competition. The post-travel stretch routine is often overlooked because of fatigue or having to rush to get to the competition venue. No matter your reason, it's time to build a post-travel stretch progression into your arrival routine. Take five minutes as a team to go through this sequence, and see the benefits is has on your body, especially the day after travel.

1. Lower Back Rollout Stretch
2. Lower-Back Single Leg Lateral Stretch
3. Lying Groin Stretch
4. Cobra
5. Piriformis
6. 3-Way Shoulder Stretch

There you have it, Bridge fans, the third episode of our travel series. Tune in next week to catch the fourth and final chapter, the Pre-Competition Warmup.
