Mistakes in stretching muscles that destroy the body after 50 years old

Eat this not that page points out mistakes in stretching that can damage the body after the age of 50.

Insufficient stretching time

A bad habit is not holding a stretch long enough for the exercise to be effective. We need to hold the stretch for at least 30 seconds to 1 minute to get the best results.

Additionally, holding a stretch for too long, such as more than 2 minutes, especially when you are just starting out in your stretching routine, can cause overstretching of the muscles, leading to pain or injury.

Incorrect stretching form and posture

With age-related muscle changes, proper technique and form become even more important. Incorrect stretching posture not only reduces the effectiveness of a stretching exercise, but can also exacerbate mobility issues.

Don't breathe deeply with your belly.

Deep diaphragmatic breathing (belly breathing) is key to relaxing the muscles while stretching, allowing for a deeper stretch. This is especially important as muscles become more tense as we age.
