Fitness - Stretching

Stretching is the most overlooked, but the most important factor of exercising. Stretching helps prevent muscle pulls and tears. Run or walk on a treadmill, or ride a stationary bike to warm up your muscles before stretching. Then, stretch all the basic muscle groups, including arms, buttocks, abs, neck, shoulders, legs, hips, and back. Hold each stretch for at least 30 seconds with a soft amount of tension. Do not bounce in a stretch! Be sure to stretch out again as part of your cool-down.
