Course description
Why stretch? Because it can help you in countless ways. Doing stretching and flexibility exercises just two to three times a week can relieve back pain, stiff necks, and sore knees when tight muscles are to blame. It can counteract too much sitting. If you’re a tennis player, golfer, hiker, or biker, a stretching program can enhance your performance. And as you age, stretching helps keep you active and flexible—and may help prevent falls.
In our online course, you’ll enjoy a stretching program that promises to improve your flexibility. Key to this course is our collection of video demonstrations that show you proper form and movement for seven warm-ups, 19 floor stretches, 12 seated stretches, and six standing stretches.
