Abstract
A prerequisite for effective and efficient movement is an adequate level of flexibility. From the activities of daily living to elite athletic and artistic performance, individuals must possess the necessary elasticity of soft tissues to accomplish the tasks they perform. Not everyone needs a daily flexibility program. However, if an individual participates in an activity in which added flexibility is desirable, or maintaining present levels is necessary, then it is advisable to include a stretching program in daily activities. For those who choose to stretch, there are many possible benefits (Table 6-1).
