Laying stretches you can do in bed 🛌

Is it beneficial to do morning stretching?

Studies show that muscles and joints are tightest in the morning. They increase flexibility throughout the day and peak at 7:00 PM. Because muscles and joints are most flexible in the evening, you have a more excellent range of motion and the ability to stretch more deeply at that time.

Benefits of stretching:
- Improve your performance in physical activities.
- Decrease your risk of injuries.
- Help your joints move through their full range of motion.
- Increase muscle blood flow.
- Enable your muscles to work most effectively.
- Improve your ability to do daily activities.

Stretching has been shown to activate your parasympathetic nervous system. When this system is activated, it can result in a feeling of calmness and relaxation. This system also helps with assisting proper digestion and resting functions.

Stretching can also help you tone up assuming you follow your stretches with strengthening exercises. When a muscle is stretched (and held for 30 seconds) two basic things happen in that muscle. One is the muscle starts to relax and the second is the muscle increases in length.

Regular stretching helps increase your range of motion in the joints, improves blood circulation and posture, and alleviates muscular tension throughout the body, he tells. In addition, it enhances your athletic performance and may reduce the risk of injury, notes the fitness expert.

For a 150-pound (68-kg) person, the average calories burned by stretching is a mere 2.7 calories per minute. If your stretch routine takes 10 minutes, this would add up to 27 calories.

You should notice a difference in how flexible you are within two to four weeks. However, that's only if you practice stretching at least five days every week. You also want to practice various stretches so that your whole body feels the burn.
