Another important reason to stretch... Stretching is so often something people neglect to do at the end of a training session because they are too tired to do anything else. Or when they do, they just rush through each stretch and so dont get the full benefit of each one. We stretch to improve our flexibility. Flexibility is the range of motion that is available to a joint or joints. Flexibility is important because: · It improves muscle balance around a joint, thus improving posture · It reduces the chance of injury when playing a sport or in every day activities · It increases the blood and nutrient supply to muscles and cartilage, thereby also reducing muscle soreness after training. Am stretching out to X3 Yoga. Happy Hump Day!!
