Stretching is VITAL! I don't think I can stress that enough! Because I had a an injury that was caused as a result of not stretching properly and enough, I decided to blog about the importance of stretching and how to do it PROPERLY!
**Stretching is one of the most controversial subjects in exercise and sport, but this author feels regular stretching is a must, and when done properly can actually rehabilitate injuries**
Yoga.
Yoga involves static-active stretching. As in static stretching (whose proper technical name is static-passive stretching), you assume and hold positions in which certain muscles are lengthened.
Calf Stretch.
>>Stand in an upright position.
>>Shift your body weight to your left leg.
>>Keeping your right heel on the ground, lift your right foot's toes up and back toward your shin.
>>Hold for a second or two, then release.
