Suppleness


If you've seen Mikhail Baryshnikov dance on television or in a movie, you've see a superbly trained body that combines strength with suppleness. he can lift a ballerina into the air yet his body can bend, twist, and stretch with ease. or picture Dr. J on the basketball court. he twists and bobs and pivots with speed and grace.

suppleness, or flexibility, is the quality of muscles bones, tendons, and ligaments that permits your joints a full range of movement. you may be supple in some joints but not in others. you may even find that the joints on one side of your body are suppler than the same joints on the other side. many people, for instance, have a greater range of movement in one shoulder then the other.

you can improve suppleness by doing bending and stretching exercises. by keeping supple, you reduce the risk of injury. when a person who is out of shape dose an Sunday volleyball game or moving furniture----he or she may strain or pull a muscle.

As people get older, they tend to lose flexibility is inevitable with aging, but reular exercise will slow this aging process.
