How to Stretch Part 2
You can stretch any time you want: at home, work, at a bus stop, walking your dog, you can stretch anywhere.
You should warm up a little before you actually start stretching, then stretch after physical activity. Try to stretch at various time of the day, holding your position for a count of thirty. Never bounce or force the stretch.
One of the main reasons we pull more muscles as we get older is because of the lack of stretching.
If you stretch on a regular basis you will notice the following changes in your body.
Stretching will help prevent injuries, your circulation will improve, it prepares your body for strenuous activities, better understanding of your body, increase range of motion and assists the mind in relaxing control of the body, so the body learns to move for its own sake.
When you first start your stretching routine, you will probably find that you are very stiff. Take your time and you will notice results very quickly.
