This story paints a picture of the mindset necessary to be successful in a stretching program. In fact, this story will show you how the mindset will work on any task life gives you?Pat Riley was the very successful coach of the Los Angeles Lakers basketball team during the 1980's.He told his players, after winning the NBA title, that the next year they should focus on improving their performance on the court by only 1 %. The result was truly amazing. All of the players came on board with that very simple request. (Yes even high paid professional basketball players can learn something new) Everyone on the team improved in all of the areas suggested by Mr. Riley. Many of the players improved in one or more areas as much as 20%.What was the key? The goal set by the coach was reasonable, and apparently, to the players, very attainable. The Lakers won the title again the next year. They actually won 5 times in 9 years between 1979 and 1989. Don't go for a gold medal. Work on improving your range of motion just 1% every other month. Work on the following suggestions whenever you stretch.Avoid overstretching. There is no gold medal for increasing your range of motion by stretching further than everyone else. If you are stretching so you can show someone how flexible you are you might want to check on why your self image needs that boost. For those that want to decrease injuries and keep participating in all that life has to offer, make sure that you are not overdoing it. Continue to challenge yourself to slowly improve. Warm up before stretching. Your muscles will do what you tell them for the most part. You can stretch your muscles until the fiber is torn apart. Your muscles have a blood supply that is adjusted according to the requirements put upon them by you. The supply of nutrients, including oxygen, and the removal of waste products are greatly improved with high blood flow. Warming up your muscles means increasing the blood flow. Get the proper blood flow to the muscles to allow them to operate as efficiently as possible.
