So, it's about time we learn how to tap into that. What d'ya say? Fitness in FlexibilityStretching promotes flexibility. And when we do our little dinosaur stretch routine once we wake up, we are inadvertently doing a morning fitness routine. Being flexible is an important part of protecting our bodies during physical movement — whether high impact or low impact — from any potential injuries. It's weird that something we think of as simple as stretching does so much for us health wise. But how do we do it properly so we take full advantage of it?
The Health BenefitsStretching provides many advantages to our health. Benefits such as increasing blood flow, alleviating tension that reduces stress, improving posture, protecting mobility, keeping muscles healthy, and quieting and relaxing the mind. Timing is EverythingAre while gyms and yoga studios are open, stretching is free when done at home! Like previously stated, morning stretching is second nature but very important to increase our blood flow. Do an afternoon stretch break to alleviate the bad posture we exhibit when immersed in work. And stretching before you go to bed loosens up your muscles and helps prevent you from waking up in any sort of pain or soreness. ![]() Photo by Lyyfe Williams on Unsplash When I was a little girl, my mom used to convince me that stretching me would make me grow faster and taller. So while my 4'10" frame proves stretching doesn't solve everything, we can attests to its countless other powers. Take some time morning, noon, and night to stretch out your body for a simple, yet effective fitness routine!
