Chapter 15 — Fitness & Exercise
How can I become more flexible?
Static stretching 3–5x per week, 30–60 seconds per stretch. Yoga combines mobility, strength, and breathing. Progress is slow — expect months, not weeks. Warm up first; never bounce.
Follow-up questions
Can everyone touch their toes?
Most, with practice — usually a hamstring, lower back, and hip issue. 8–12 weeks of consistent stretching gets most people there.
Is stretching in the morning bad?
Warm up first (5-minute walk). Cold stretching risks strain.
