When you stretch after a cardio workout, you will reduce your heart rate. Slowing down after an intense workout helps your body to return to a normal state (normal breathing, normal heart rate...). Stretching also allows the muscles to lengthen after being contracted during a strengthing, weight training, or cardio workout. This reduces the lactic acid buildup within the muscles that may contribute to soreness.
