Sunil Chhetri shares post-dinner stretching routine for better fitness and recovery

Sunil Chhetri, India's top footballer, emphasizes the importance of a post-dinner stretching routine for fitness. He has practiced this for 4-5 years, spending 20 to 30 minutes each night, which he says helps him feel refreshed each morning. Chhetri's stretching routine enhances flexibility, aids recovery, and improves overall well-being. Benefits include better performance, reduced injury risk, improved blood circulation, and enhanced posture. This practice is part of his training for high-intensity football. Stretching works by elongating muscle fibers, improving mobility, and restoring balance between muscle groups. Proper technique involves alignment, stabilization, intensity, duration, speed, frequency, and type of stretch.
