With an increase in sedentary lifestyles, it is essential that you maintain flexibility. Otherwise, as you age, your flexibility will deteriorate and the simple, daily activities will become a chore.

That's not something any of us want to accept.

Let's expand on the purpose of flexibility. You can enhance your performance in resistance training and aerobic training. Science supports that injury decreases with flexibility training and allows for a greater ROM (range of motion). You also become more in tune with your body.

Benefits of Flexibility Training:

  1. Reduces stress in your muscles worked during exercise.
  2. Releases the build-up of tension during exercise.
  3. Helps to improve posture.
  4. Reduces the risk of injury.
  5. Improves your overall strength as it increases your ROM.

How often do you perform flexibility training? DAILY

How long (the duration) do you need to practice flexibility? 5-10 minutes

How hard is flexibility training? Will it hurt? Stretching should not be painful. You will experience discomfort or feel a little uncomfortable. But the tightness will release. If you feel pain, you should NOT be stretching!

TYPES of STRETCHING:

  • Static Stretching: specific to an area; hold the position for 20 seconds, rest 20 seconds, then repeat 2x.
  • Dynamic Stretching: it's the full ROM of an area.It warms up the joints, maintains flexibility, and reduces muscle stress and tension.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Add flexibility training into your fitness routine!

Guidelines for Flexibility Training:

  1. Go slow. Work within your limits.
  2. Breathe deeply. Slow and steady.
  3. Focus on each muscle. Feel the tension and stress release.
  4. Modify to fit your ability.
  5. Connect the training with your meditation.
