Flexible body

Did you know that the body with well-developed flexibility and stretched ligamentous apparatus effectively responds to physical activity? Endurance and muscle strength increase, intense if in parallel to develop a flexibility that allows you to get the maximum amount of movement, you significantly reduce the risk of sports injuries (dislocations, sprains): less likely to happen than injury, the less the athlete or Amateur to miss a workout, and it increases the effectiveness of sports programs. Increased amplitude and the amount of motion in the joints while power loads involves more muscles but it improves the condition of muscle tissue and promotes the acquisition of tone and needed physical status. The development of plasticity of your members will contribute to the reduction of muscle pain, in addition, the flexibility gives the muscles extra strength. If the muscles are stretched, soft, recovery period is much faster.


Some people have a natural flexibility: they easily sit in the splits; others need to practice a lot to achieve desired results. If the natural flexibility is not enough, you will have to train regularly – choose a fitness programme, which equally includes exercises for endurance and flexibility. There is no need to purchase expensive equipment, hire a personal trainer – to work on flexibility at home. Almost all training facilities contain exercises on a stretching of muscles and ligaments, as work on a particular muscle group it is better to start and finish with stretching – it helps to warm up, and then relax the muscles. But in order to develop phenomenal flexibility, standard training facilities is not enough – you need to exercises include special exercises to develop plasticity. Contact your nearest fitness club and find out what programs are available to increase the plasticity of the body. YOGA, regardless of the type of this species of gymnastics, perfectly develops not only flexibility, but strength of spirit. The disadvantage of this kind of physical practice is the lack of exercises on muscular strength and durability. PILATES or body Flex is aimed at the development of flexibility, stamina and strength. Suited to fans of slow exercises. STRETCHING is focused exclusively on the development of plasticity, and not on the correction. Regular exercise will give your body lightness and grace. CALLANETICS is a complex power static exercises to develop plasticity and increase the stretch. If you still prefer the self-study group, do not forget to include in your training Arsenal stretching exercises muscle and ligament. But note: to achieve tangible results and to develop a visible plasticity, it is necessary to spend sufficient amount of time. We offer you a few examples on the development of flexibility, you can perform even at home: Position: legs apart at shoulder width, bend down and touch the same feet, marking the position for half a minute. The exercise is performed without oscillations and jumps, the knee joints do not bend! If you can't reach the foot, to begin, tap the knee, advancing, in the future, all below. Duplicate the exercise on the opposite side. Lean forward to the lower extremities and to grasp hands over shins. Repeat the shaking motion forward to the footsteps with our hands, trying to touch head to feet. The ultimate goal of this exercise is to ensure that the elbows lay on the floor. The position of the lower extremities arbitrary: wide apart or closed together, while in the knee the legs should be as extended and your heels fixed on the floor. In this position, try to be up to 30 seconds. Sitting position on the floor as widely as possible to spread his legs. Do springy slopes in the middle and trying the case to put between the legs, while the heels need to be "glued" to the horizontal surface! Hold this position for 30 seconds. Position still on the floor, spreading her legs as widely as possible, produce inclinations to one lower limb, trying to get his fingers to the heel of the palms and touch the chest to the feet. Stay in this position for 30 seconds. Repeat on the opposite side. From the same position, bend your legs at the knees and pull to chest, feet together, thighs apart, hands on inner thighs. From this position pull the body forward between the thighs, developing, thus, the muscles of the inner thigh and lower back. Secure the pose for 30 seconds, then repeat. Position in the pose of "the knight" (on one knee), other leg is firmly fixed to the floor at right angles, back straight. The "back" leg to take a hand for a foot and to pull up to the back – thus developing the quadriceps. Lock it for 30 seconds. Described refers to the set of static stretching. Quite effective is dynamic stretching, which, in addition to increasing plasticity, increases volume of movements in joints. The flapping motion, and other dynamic practices should be performed very carefully to avoid injury. Don't ignore exercise, increase the plasticity. Through regular lessons that enhance the stretching, is adjusted figure, the movements become soft, become more relaxed and graceful. P. S.
