  Back stretches help to keep your spine healthy. Performing back stretches also helps to keep your vertebrae loose and mobile so that when you bend over to pick up an object, you avoid injuring yourself.
  You can perform back stretches after each set of a back exercise and at the end of your workout. You can also perform back stretches every morning if you have time. If you work at a desk all day, you may want to perform the Upper Back Stretch while seated. As with other stretching exercises, you should try to hold each stretch for 15 to 30 seconds.

Introduction to Stretching

00:32 Admin 0 Comments

 Stretching helps prevent injuries, keeps your muscles relaxed and your body flexible. Stretching can also help make daily activities easier to perform, improve your posture, reduce muscle soreness after workouts and make your muscles look leaner and longer.

 Age and lack of exercise tend to shorten the length of our muscles. Stretching helps to lengthen the muscles and loosen up the joints. As a result, the body becomes more flexible and we are able to feel and perform better.

 You should avoid comparing your flexibility with other people. Your flexibility will improve as you perform stretches on a regular basis. If you perform stretches at least 3 times a week, you will notice a marked increase in your flexibility after just a few weeks. When performing stretches, you can concentrate on muscles that you use on a daily basis and when you workout. However, you should not neglect any major muscle group.
