What you'll need:

WHY SHOULD YOU IMPROVE YOUR FLEXIBILITY?

Avoid pain. Bad posture not only doesn’t look aesthetically pleasing, it can also get very painful. Many knee, hip, and back issues start from muscle tightness.
Decrease risk of injury. If you are tight, the chances of getting injured are higher not only when you work out, but also when you’re doing everyday tasks such as carrying groceries or picking up your dog or child.
Increase your range of motion. For example, if your upper back, shoulders and neck are really tight, it’s hard to do any overhead movements like overhead squats or handstands.
Improve your athletic performance. There are an endless list of exercises that having a lack of flexibility can reduce performance.
Increase blood flow into the muscles. Blood transports vital nutrients into your organs and muscles, which helps them to perform better.
Avoid muscle imbalances. For example, too many of us spend our days sitting, slouching behind a computer. As a result, chest muscles get tight and muscles in the upper back stretch too much, leading to constant hunched position.
Reduce stress. This is actually a huge reason to stretch–loose muscles and a more open body make you feel better not only physically, but also mentally!
