Full Description

An easy-to-start program for maintaining a mobile, active, and healthy lifestyle after 50 and beyond Designed to meet your unique needs, the carefully modified stretches in this book are easy to learn and safe to perform at any age. Regardless of your current fitness level, 50+ Stretching shows how to substantially improve flexibility by incorporating basic stretches into your life. The exercises in this book can reverse years of muscle tightening, helping you perform daily activities without pain and enjoy sports and leisure activities without injury. Fully illustrated with step-by-step photos and clear captions, the stretches cover all muscle groups, including problem areas such as neck, lower back, and hands. In addition, the author includes tips, cautions and techniques for properly performing each stretch. Also among the book's exclusive features are the "supereasy" variations designed for the 60-and-older individuals with limited mobility. By incorporating helpful props such as a chair, sofa, or elastic strap, these stretches are a safe way to begin gaining flexibility and are the perfect stepping stone to the book's other stretches.
