How
to Improve Your Flexibility? To
improve your flexibility, choose sports that lengthen the muscles such as swimming,
martial arts or a basic stretching workout from Master Moves, Yoga or Pilates.
Alternatively, consider joining classes on tennis and dancing.
Many
people are unaware of the fact that the order in which you perform your stretching
exercises is important. Quite often, when we perform a particular stretch, it
actually stretches more than one group of muscles: the muscles that the stretch
is primarily intended for, and other supporting muscles that are also stretched
but which do not receive the "brunt" of the stretch.
Ideally,
stretching should be done daily. Realistically though, most people do not have
the patience to stretch every day. A good goal is to aim for 3 to 4, 15 to 20-minute
flexibility sessions per week. Each stretch that you do should be done slowly
and held for 5 to 30 seconds. One way of doing this is to hold the stretch at
the point of tightness for about 20 seconds and then push beyond this point (i.e.
to the point just before discomfort) for 10 extra seconds.
How
to measure Your Flexibility? To measure body flexibility especially
of the lower back and the backs of the upper legs try the Master Moves Body Conditioning.

Your next level is to achieve optimal flexibility. This will require the practice
of the Master Moves Body Flexibility program. With daily practice, you can achieve

How
to prevent injuries? By keeping your whole body toned and flexible,
you can prevent injuries ranging from aches and pains to serious joint damage.
When your body is more flexible, it is better able to respond to the occasional
over extensionor
sudden twisting movement that might happen in the course of practicing sports,
dancing or daily activities.
Not surprisingly, lower body flexibility is the key to preventing most running
injuries. Runners should work on ankle, calf, hamstring, quadriceps, hip, groin,
and IT band flexibility. Flexibility for running is important for two reasons:
to prevent injury and to allow for a full range of motion to generate maximum
speed. While flexible athletes are not always the fastest runners, inflexible
athletes are quite often injured runners. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain
at least a minimum amount of flexibility.
How
to enhance your body movements? In
the practice of sports, you need to be prepared not only for the movements you
expect to perform, but for the unexpected as well. Each individual has unique
goals, personal preferences, conceptual metabolism abilities, and genetic make-ups
qualities. To achieve the best physical performance with sports, you must enhance
and sustain your body flexibility. Body flexibility will enhance your body movements
and should reduce the incidence of injuries.
