Stretching for weight loss
We don't often think of stretching as an exercise for weight loss -
but stretching exercises are used as the main ingredient to two of the
most popular exercises for weight loss and fitness: yoga and pilates.
Stretching exercises, when done correctly, can bring a sense of grace
and balance back to your body, while helping to prevent injuries while
performing more active exercise routines. Runners, joggers, weight lifters
and swimmers are all admonished to do their stretching exercises.
