Enjoyed the article! I got into stretching by accident! I fell in love with how it made me feel! I am 46 years old with some athletic injuries that I have never had surgery for! I was able to rehab all of them without going under the knife! Took some time! I really learned how important stretching is when I got away from it because of doing other workouts and athletics with a family and my own business! The pains started returning again! As a "typical male" it's easy to have that macho attitude and skip stretching to perform other types of physical fitness! I hope i don't make that mistake again! Thanks for the article!
