5 Stretches to Do First Thing in the Morning
They will completely change your day
You turn off your alarm clock for the fourth time, scroll on Twitter for a few minutes, and finally decide that it’s time to get your day started.
Before making your way over to your morning bathroom routine, you pause and notice a pain in your back.
Did you sleep funny?
You try to get your back loose with no success and decide right there that you’re going to live the rest of your day with an aching pain in your back.
A similar situation has happened to all of us at one point or another, but there is a way around it.
Stretching.
Morning stretching keeps your muscles loose and flexible while also helping you maintain a wide range of motion in your joints without tightening up.
Also, stretching has a compounding affect on your body. The more you do it, the better you’ll feel and the more flexible you’ll become. It won’t just solve your problems overnight.
If you do it often enough it can be a great way to start the day and remove a lot of pain from your life.
Here are five of my favorite morning stretches.
