One of the several mechanisms why Tai Chi is effective for BP management.

[Sae Young Jae @uiuc2306]

Our latest findings suggest inspiratory muscle training is as effective as aerobic exercise in reducing both brachial and central BP — and may serve as a time-efficient adjunct in hypertension management. https://t.co/4wuZdRwxYQ

Research has shown that stretching can reduce all-cause mortality. We now know stretching is key to slower aging and quality of life - all ages.

Interesting: those who did flexibility exercises at least five times a week had a 20% lower risk of dying during the follow-up period than those who didn't stretch at all. That was slightly better than the risk reduction associated with high volumes of aerobic exercise and resistance training.

Stretching for just 5 minutes every day can have a big impact on your health. Don't rush it, add it to a habit you already have and keep it simple!

The Benefits of Stretching:

1. More Strength
2. Reduced Arterial Stiffness - Heart Health
3. Improved Performance
4. Joint Health

👉 Consistency is a key factor.
