Along with aerobic exercise and resistance (weight) training, stretching is an essential component of a complete fitness regime, yet it is the most neglected.
People either perceive it as too easy and, as a result, unnecessary, or too difficult, believing that only the very flexible actually benefit from stretching. In fact, regular, controlled stretching improves and maintains flexibility and mobility, corrects bad posture, reduces the risk of injury, relieves pain, and even helps counteract the effects of ageing. In addition, it relaxes the body, helps reduce stress levels and can help to boost self-esteem. This book clearly demonstrates how everyone, regardless of their age or fitness level, can benefit from stretching. Overleaf you will find a detailed breakdown of the structure.
Through 'Stretching' you'll learn simple exercises that can be easily performed at home. They require no special equipment and can help you achieve a vital, pain-free and healthy body.
