Getting older can be a complex subject. We all try to avoid thinking or talking about it, but it is a natural process we all go through. There are many common misconceptions around what stretches and exercises are best, and a lot of poor advice that could lead to you becoming inactive or with a significant injury. I descend from a family of women who have lived well into their 90s and managed to remain active into their 70s. This might surprise a few people, but stretching regularly and being active are the main reasons they all managed to live such long and healthy lives. Your body may begin to show signs of aging, but you can still stay young at heart and make the most of your life by stretching often and consistently.
