Total Body Stretching Routine

Stretching for 97% of us it is one of the long forgotten key tools to ever-lasting health, fitness and wellness.  But how can something literally soooo simple be forgotten.  Well lets call out the obvious…no fancy, high dollar, state-of-the-art equipment is needed; you can’t place some neat colorful label on it that some media company charged thousands of hours to create…and literally doesn’t take some athlete or celebrity to endorse.

Honestly, if someone was going to tell me they could only do one thing and one thing only to improve their overall well being – and that is it…and they told me to choose what that one things would be … after all of my years of instructing thousands of clients in various functional and resistance training modalities, nutrition methods and techniques, etc…..if I had to choose that “just one”….my first choice for them would be to stretch.

To help you understand the simplicity…and the pure overall wellness benefits…here is a little idea of what a stretching routine might look like.
