Discover the Benefits of Stretching

Question:

When you talk about stretching, do you simply mean making your muscles feel better after exercise?

Answer:

Yes, but it's about much, much more. Stretching is certainly a feel-good activity — it comforts your body and releases tension — but it also conditions your muscles for moving. The more flexible you are, the less likely you are to be injured — and you know what recovery time from an injury can do to your waistline!

Stretching also helps work out the kinks in the muscles of your neck, back, arms, and legs, improving your posture and even making you look taller.
