stretching

I have realized warming up and stretching are heavily underestimated activities - they actually help against strains and pulls! I used to do it every night before going to sleep, but stopped when I got here (probably because I don't exercise as much as I used to). but now I've decided to start it again, because it only takes so little time (less than 5 minutes) and the benefits are definitely worth it. I only do a few sets of muscles, depending on my mood: calves, hamstrings, quadriceps, and occasionally the groin. 20 seconds per leg and stretch, so it's a total of less than 3 minutes. well worth it!
