Proper stretching is essential for performance and injury prevention in lacrosse goalies. Below, we present a series of exercises based on the TGS method, designed to improve flexibility and readiness for goalkeepers.
Toe Touch Stretch: Keep legs together, bend forward, and touch your toes without bouncing. Hold the position and return slowly.
Lateral Stretch: With legs apart, lean first to the right and then to the left, holding each stretch for a few seconds. Finally, bend towards the center for a full stretch.
One-Leg Stretch: Sit with one leg extended and the other bent. Lean forward to touch the toes of the extended leg. Repeat with the other leg.
