Stretch It! - Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital
Why do we need to stretch?
It is important to understand how stretching can help you stay active as you get older…AND how to stretch correctly. It's about daily things, bending down to tie a shoe, walking upstairs, just getting up off the couch! Improving your mobility makes your daily activities easier—"you can move more freely.”
Staying flexible is good:
- Move better, in a wider range of motion
- Reduce tightness
- Improve your posture & joint range of motion
- Improve circulation
- Decrease your risk of injury
Let’s stretch and flex together!
