1523 The Importance of Stretching

Life is filled with a lot of must-dos. One that is
overlooked often is the importance of stretching. What are you
doing to keep your body flexible?


As much as you think cardio and muscular strength is important,
so is keeping your body flexible.

Stretching increases your mobility and independence.


When you get older, the last thing you want to do is lose either
of those; mobility or independence.


You don't want anything to hold you back. You've worked so hard
to get where you are in your career and your family, is it worth
sacrificing your longterm health?


Of course not!


So it's time for you to make your aging health a priority. Let's
stretch it out.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Stretch it out!

How much of your day is sitting?


Mine can be way too much if I'm not careful and intentional about
my movement. For me personally, I stretch every day even if I
don't workout. And when I don't stretch, oh boy do I feel it,
especially at night.


There are so many benefits to stretching (flexibility training):
Reduces stress in your muscles worked during exercise. Releases
the build-up of tension during exercise. Helps to improve posture.
Reduces the risk of injury during exercise and daily living.
Improves your overall strength as it increases your ROM.

How good do you feel when your all tight?


You don't, which in turn affects your mood and attitude. Who
really wants to be limited by your tightness?


Areas to stretch:


Lower extremities: calves, hamstrings, hip flexors, and
quadriceps (front of the thigh).

Lower back

Shoulders

Neck



Guidelines for stretching:
Go slow. Work within your limits. Be sure to warm up (a brisk
5-minute walk). Breathe deeply. Smooth, slow, and steady. Focus on
each muscle. Feel the tension and stress release. Hold the stretch
for 10-30 seconds. Think of counting. Press into the stretch as
tension releases. This will increase over time. Modify to fit your
ability. Don't rush the process. Connect stretching with your
meditation. "Stretch out your day. You'll feel better and
your day will go smoother."
