La Crosse (WKBT) — A simple stretch a day could help those with cardiovascular disease, a recent UW-La Crosse study found.
It’s a question that has been debated for decades, ‘To stretch or not to stretch before a workout’. Researchers at UW-La Crosse found that passive stretching, which uses an external force such as a towel to help stretch instead of your own strength, helped blood vessels function better than not stretching after workout.
