Have you noticed that some stretches or bends you could easily do at a younger age, you no longer can do them? If you are like me, you’d be wondering how that happened. Well, I saw an article that discusses the issue of loss of range of motion, and what could be done to correct or manage it effectively, and I decided to share with you.
The biggest reason joint range of motion declines with age is because of our habits. Think: If you don’t use it, you lose it. Plus, over time, repetitive motions get engrained.
One classic example? Typing at a keyboard. Jo explains that…Over the years, if you don’t do anything to counteract that habitual activity, the muscles on one side of a joint become chronically shortened and the muscles on the opposite side become chronically lengthened,” she says. For instance, even when you’re not…”
I found a lot of sense in this article. I never knew someone can control that, my all-day belief is that age controls every activity in human life not until I read this article. This article is highly informative.
