Stretching Exercises

Stretching is a form of physical exercise in which a specific muscle or tendon (or muscle group) is deliberately flexed or stretched in order to improve the muscle's felt elasticity and achieve comfortable muscle tone. The result is a feeling of increased muscle control, flexibility and range of motion. Stretching is also used therapeutically to alleviate cramps. **** Please consult your physician or medical doctor before using any routine or exercise **** iPro Stretching Exercises Features (for Free) - Customizable basic Neck and Eyes exercises.

 **** Benefits **** - One review suggests that there are many beneficial stretches that can improve range of motion in athletes, especially runners.
 - If done properly, stretching can prevent injury, relax the muscles, increase range of motion and flexibility, and better one's performance. 
- Stretching is more beneficial to those who stretch regularly, as opposed to those people who stretch occasionally.
 - Stretching increases blood flow which prevents hardening of the arteries and it also produces synovial fluid, which lubricates the joints that are surrounded by the muscles; which in turn helps prevent arthritis.
 - Stretching stabilizes the body's natural balance and posture, and aligns the joints leading to better coordination. After any physical activity, there is a buildup of lactic acid in one's body and by stretching the lactic acid is removed, therefore alleviating any muscle pain or cramps.
