“Adding certain stretching movements to my workouts has fixed my shoulder and lower back pain, I now see stretching as an essential part of health and fitness.”
Hi, I’m James Atkinson (Jim to my readers and friends), I’m a qualified personal trainer and I’ve spent around 25 years of my life training for all types of fitness results.
Although I’ve been a competing bodybuilder, a long distance endurance runner and a bunch of things in between, I don’t like to boast about my success because I have always believed that if you have a goal, you take advice from people who have already achieved your goal, you create a plan based on this and then stay consistent, you will achieve success.
I love to see people achieve life changing results from fitness and as this is a passion of mine I’m always happy to help out more should you have questions, so I’m contactable via my website and ready to help where I can.
It would be great to hear from you and share in your fitness journey!
This stretching book can be used simply to pick up some exercise ideas, but it can also be your gateway to a wonderfully successful fitness venture!
You are just a click away, so let’s get started!
See you on the inside, all the best
Jim

From the Publisher
Different ways to stretch the same muscle group
In the most basic terms, stretching a muscle is simply extending a joint through the plane of movement it was designed to travel in. For each muscle group, this can be performed in multiple ways with varying degrees of intensity. Like other workout activities, some stretching exercises are more advanced than others.
A choice of stretching exercise positions
Seated stretching positions
Stretching and flexibility exercises can be performed from a seated position. All major muscle groups can be worked using the stability of a chair, stool or even a step. Full body stretching routines can be carried out in this way.
lying stretching positions
Stretching from a lying position is a great option for some trainers. Some find these stretches to be more relaxing, so perfect for passive stretching techniques.
Standing stretches
Full body stretching routines can be performed from a standing position without any equipment. Often trainers will vary the positions in a stretching routine by mixing in standing, sitting and lying positions, depending on their ability and comfort of individual exercises.
Stretching with equipment
Although it is not necessary for some trainers, the use of minimal stretching aids can enhance progression with flexibility and mobility. Equipment such as a wall, step, rope or even rolled up towel can add variation to a stretching routine.
Stretching routines
Follow along
Having a plan and routine to follow can help with more than simply knowing what to do in a workout. A plan can help us to stay on track, give us accountability and motivation.
Create your own
A “cookie cutter” stretching plan might work well for some people, but having something that is bespoke is far more valuable.
2-day split
A 2-day split is a form of exercise planning that uses 2 separate workouts; an “A” workout and a “B” workout. Normally these workouts focus on muscle groups that work in synergy with each other.
