First of all, we need to consider that between 30 and 70 years old the level of flexibility is significantly reduced, on average by 20-30%.

This is because over time in the joints and tendons occur very significant changes.

Especially arise big problems with the tendons.

They shrink and lose their elasticity, which greatly constrains the movement.

As a result, people can't jump out of bed as a young age, and gradually straightens up.

For some people becomes a significant problem to raise the thing off the floor or even just tying their shoelaces.

And if you regularly practice this kind of stretches like the splits and other similar exercises workout the muscles of thighs and calves can significantly improve the mobility of any person .
