Elderly Flexibility Exercises For Seniors: How To Improve Mobility In Older Adults: Senior Exercise Programs At Home (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798743398935)

Stretching is an important part of elderly and seniors' flexibility and will help offset the effects of normal decline in the flexibility of your joints and help you remain active and independent. As we age muscles become shorter and lose their elasticity. Aging can affect the structure of your bones and muscles causing pain and decreased range of motion in the shoulders, spine, and hips. Stretching is an excellent way to relax and relieve tension if you incorporate breathing exercises and good posture in your stretching program. This course mainly focuses on how to use stretching as a way to maintain limberness and flexibility regardless of how old you are. The truth is it's never too late to get to start doing something about your body.
