Ever wake up in the morning with aches and pains? Does your job keep you hunched over a desk for hours a day? Perhaps you are a runner with a good level of fitness but can barely touch your toes? If the answer is yes - it's time to STRETCH!
STRETCH outlines a daily program of seven simple stretches (with three variations of each) staggered throughout the working day, making it easier than ever to combat the common aches and pains of working from home.
'This book has definitely made me rethink my priorities when it comes to a workout - it's the perfect way to start your mobility journey!' - Tom Daley, Olympic swimmer
Due to the sedentary nature of modern life, muscles and joints can slowly tighten over the years. All of a sudden you realise that you can't sit comfortably in a squat, touch your toes or get up from sitting on the floor without using your hands. In life, if we don't use the movement, we lose the movement.
Professional movement coach Roger Frampton - whose viral TED Talk 'Why Sitting Down Destroys You' has reached nearly 5 million viewers - is here to help.
Combining light bodyweight exercises, gentle twists and elongating stretches, STRETCH is a daily programme of seven essential movements (with three variations of each) to help combat the key areas of the body that have lost functionality, improve overall wellbeing and fight the negative effects of a sedentary lifestyle. All without a gym membership.
