Fitness and Health - Staying Flexible - Charles L. Mee - Hardcover

Physical fitness is more than just endurance or muscular strength. It is a complex latticework of many interrelated factors, each important in its own way. One of these factors is flexibility. Perhaps the most neglected aspect of many fitness programmes, flexibility training is being increasingly recognised as crucial for complementing muscular strength, building efficiency and coordination, and preventing injuries. Flexibility is the mobility or range of motion in a joint. One of the obvious signs of advancing age is reduced flexibility. In many cases the range of motion becomes restricted and the fear of injury overides simple tasks such as walking or climbing stairs. Luckily, inflexibility can be reversed and improved flexibility can be achieved by stretching. This book contains simple exercises to improve flexibility as well as recipes containing ingredients beneficial for healthy muscles and bones.Mee, Charles L. is the author of 'Fitness and Health - Staying Flexible - Charles L.
