Stretching Exercises and Flexibility Training

Stretching exercises help fuel a healthy body. You can be in the best shape of your life, healthier than ever and if your muscles are tight, you’re going to have problems. Trust me, I know how cool it is to have abs ripped to the bone. I know how cool it is to have people stare at you in the gym and ask for advice in the locker room. All of this is great. But, if you can’t touch your toes, if you can’t lock your hands behind your head because your anterior delts are too tight, you’re not healthy and fit.
