5 Tips on proper stretching

Stretching is a movement that we do to stretch the muscles or tendons so stiff muscles become flexible back and range of motion (range of motion) become larger. The result is a muscle that was stiff felt to be comfortable.

If you do stretching yourself at home, do it in front of a mirror so you can see your own position. Wear clothing that is comfortable and not too tight, remove shoes, do the above yoga mat.
Position / right movement is very important. Watch the video clip several times before participating do. Consider carefully whether the knee should be bent or straight? How is the position of the body, if you are too bent? Head / face up, forward or down? The position of the arms, palms, soles, heels, all linked to the body part being stretched.
Do not hold your breath during stretching and always pull your stomach in, flat hip (do nungging) and busungkan chest (do not hunchback). For most of the movement, the shoulder must be in a state of relaxed, not tense lifted upwards.
Should not stretching as a warm up. Warming up better with exercise or movement in a way that more and more rapidly. Stretching is done as cooling down.
Do not be afraid to make a move that is not entirely true, as long as you do not do stretching until you feel pain, you probably slight injury. However, you may not get the desired results. If you do not specifically studied in a more understanding, to know exactly how the movement is right, you should frequently watch videos and listen to the instructions carefully.
