Stretching |
By: Robert and Jean Anderson
Based on Robert's best-selling book "Stretching." Appropriate for people of all ages and interests, viewers are taught the who, why, when and how of proper stretching. The 57 minute video is organized into six comfortably paced sections: a brief introduction, stretches for the neck and back, then legs and hips, followed by stretches for the feet and then arms and shoulders. A 14-minute overall routine that can be followed for everyday fitness or for specific sports is provided at the conclusion of the video.
Customer Comment: Definitely a great lower body workout. I also thought that she did a good job of explaining the exercises – which they don't do in some exercise videos.The only thing that I didn't like is that it didn't really include a warm up. She starts in pretty quickly on some hamstring stretches that I didn't feel like I got the full benefit of because I was too stiff. I’d recommend a light cardio warm up before starting the video. Or perhaps for dancers incorporating the stretching at the end of a practice session or class.
