You relax...and still gain the benefits of stretching:
- Increase Range of Motion: Stretching increases the length of both muscles and tendons. This leads to an increased range of movement, which means your limbs and joints can move further to decrease the likelihood of an injury.
- Increase Flexibility: Muscles perform more efficiently which makes activities easier and less tiring.
- Improve Circulation: Stretching increases blood flow to the muscles, which brings oxygen and nutrients and removes waste products. This also helps shorten the recovery time for injured muscles.
- Enhance Coordination: Maintaining the full range of motion through your joints keeps you in better balance. This will keep you mobile and loess prone to injury from falls.
- Better Posture: Chronically tight muscles lead to poor posture, which can affect the function of other muscles, internal organs and your appearance.
- Increase Energy Level: Resulting from increased circulation
- Stress Relief: Stretching helps relax tense muscles resulting from stress and the feeling of relaxation brings a sense of well-being and freduced tension.
