Stretching

An important technique before you should partake in any activity is of course stretching. Without stretching before an activity your body will be susceptible to injuries. I myself am never stretched before a strenuous activity and am suffering because of it.

Just fifteen minutes a day can be spent stretching and will help your overall health. A few stretches I have found on the Whole Body Stretching Routines web page can be a good start, (http://www.sportsscience.co/flexibility/whole-body-stretching-routine/). I've also found that watching "Youtube" videos on how to stretch can be visually better because you can see the movements instead of having to imagine them. One set of videos  on "Youube" are by a man named Mathew Rosenberge. Mr. Rosenberge more informative video is of himself instructing for fifteen minutes as he performs multiple stretches, and can be found at, (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6kADa5Gtzw). Also Mr. Rosenberge has several other videos that are just as informative. If you spend at least fifteen minutes a day stretching and warming up your over all chances of being healthier are improved.
