What are the benefits of stretching?

The so-called active stretching means that the action is mainly kept in a specific position by the strength of muscle contraction, rather than other external forces, so active stretching is also called static-active stretching. The advantage of active stretching is that it can increase the flexibility of action and the strength of muscle contraction.

Stretching increases the flexibility of the body. Some people think that flexibility is the only thing that gymnasts need. No, people with stiff bodies and ligaments are prone to injuries in sports and daily life, which is why the elderly are particularly prone to fractures. Stretching can soften the coordination between muscle ligaments and joints, reduce the possibility of joint and muscle injuries and reduce the possibility of back problems. Sometimes, when you are tired one day, you are particularly prone to backache the next day. This is because you didn't stretch in time, so you can stretch for 20 minutes after a tired day, which can relieve muscle pain. Keep your joints healthy. Stretching can actually be regarded as a kind of strength exercise, the most basic one, which makes the body feel soft and powerful.
