STRETCH MORE MY DEAR FRIENDS
The benefits of improving your flexibility are many. Here are just a few good reasons:
• Flexibility improves your performance. When a joint is flexible it will take less energy to move it in a greater range of motion.
• Prevents injury and soreness. Stretching improves muscular balance and relaxation and also decreases the resistance of your tissues, therefore you are less likely to become injured or sore.
• Flexibility (stretching) increases blood supply and nutrients to your joints and surrounding tissue. This in turn promotes greater elasticity and improved performance.
• Improves muscle coordination. Stretching improves the time a nerve impulse takes to travel to your brain and back. This helps muscle groups to work together and improves coordination.
