Enhancing Concentration: Focus and Stability

Increasing flexibility – flexible muscles have the ability to get stronger than rigid muscles because there is less time needed for recovery after intense training. Flexibility also makes the body less prone to injury. Flexibility will also enable the body to take on more difficult tasks such as reaching or leaping for a ball.
