I have a question for you…

Are you flexible?

Some people are just naturally more flexible. Flexibility or the lack of it can be due to your genetics, gender, age, body shape, and level of physical activity.

let’s call him ‘flexy,’ courtesy of Sydney Morning Herald

As people grow older, they may get wiser but they also tend to lose flexibility.  Sometimes the loss of flexibility is the result of inactivity, but it is also because of the aging process itself. The less active you are, the less flexible you are likely to be.  And like most everything, including cardiovascular endurance and muscle strength, flexibility will improve with regular training too.

So make like cat-woman…or Katmandu… as the case may be.  You need to work it like a cat; stretch and bend at least twice a day.  You’ll have the flexibility to keep you purring right along…
