  • Jillian Michaels’ 10 Minute Stretching Plan

    Person performing a yoga pose in white athletic wear against a gray background.

    Help unlock flexibility, reduce muscle tension, and improve mobility with Jillian Michaels' 10-Minute Stretching Plan! This full-body routine is designed to enhance recovery, boost circulation, and prime your muscles for movement- whether you're gearing up for a workout or winding down after one.

    With a series of dynamic and static stretches, you’ll target key muscle groups to increase range of motion and relieve tightness. The routine lasts about 10–12 minutes, but if you’re short on time, simply reduce each stretch to 20 seconds instead of 30.

    Breathe deep, move with intention, and feel your body reset with this effective stretching sequence.

    Let’s get started!
