What are the stretching exercises?

Gymnastics is a form of sport that is loved by many people. Since gymnastics is not strenuous and can exercise various parts of the body, it is very suitable for middle-aged and elderly friends and primary school students to exercise on a daily basis. Gymnastics is not a traditional form of exercise. Everyone can perform targeted stretching according to their body's needs. Here is how to do stretching exercises.

Sit on a mattress or blanket, cross your palms and hold them together, push up and stretch until you feel the tight point, stop, keep still, coordinate your breathing during the movement, and stay for more than 10 seconds.

Grab the elbow of one hand with the other hand, and slowly pull it inward toward the head, coordinating your breathing during the movement. Stay for 15-20 seconds, switch sides, and repeat the same movement.

Put your hands behind your back and grasp each other, then slowly raise your arms to a comfortable position, and then maintain this position, coordinating your breathing during the movement, and stay for 10-15 seconds.

Open your feet shoulder-width apart, bend your knees slightly, raise one hand straight up across your head and stretch it outward, place the other hand naturally in front of your abdomen, and bend and stretch your waist outward. Coordinate your breathing during the movement, stay for 10 seconds, switch sides, and repeat the same movement.

Stretch your palms outward, open your arms and then slowly pull them back until you feel the muscles in your chest, shoulders and arms tense. Coordinate your breathing during the movement and hold it for more than 10 seconds.

Sit on the floor with your left foot flat on the floor and cross your other foot into a bent position. Place your right hand near your hip and use your left hand to slowly push your bent right knee inward until you feel the muscles tighten. Coordinate your breathing during the movement. Stay for 15-20 seconds, switch sides, and repeat the same movement.
