Back and neck pain forced cowboy Albert Marquis to hang up the reins. Through basic yoga stretching, he finds his way back into the saddle. From the article, "I think our ligaments, tendons and muscles are like the leather in our tack room (where we keep saddles, bridles and other gear). When leather is twisted and stretched on a regular basis, it remains pliable, limber and strong. When neglected, leather gets stiff, it begins to crack, and it can actually break. Our ligaments, tendons and muscles—that are organic like leather—are just the same. They need to be stretched and twisted on a regular basis. Otherwise, they get stiff and knotted, resulting in pain, limited movement and injury."
