WE need to stretch our bodies to improve our flexibility (the range of motion available to our joints).

Flexibility does the following:

• Improves muscle balance around a joint, which in turn improves your posture;
• Reduces the chance of injury when we are active; and
• Increases the blood and nutrient supply to muscles and cartilage.
