Hey everyone,
I’m new here and need some help concerning stretching.
Well, first things first: I’m just a recreational skater, 18 years old and started skating about 2 years ago.
I’m doing single jumps and working on sit spins and camel spins now.
Since I can’t be on the ice that often, I like to do off ice exercises.
Last year, I began working out and stretching about three times a week, but it didn’t improved my skating. On the contrary, my coach and I both noticed that my spirals were much lower and I could’nt put my leg as high as I did before.
All in all, I felt more inflexible…
Does anyone has a clue why this happened (or what I did wrong...) ?
Thanks a lot!
