6 benefits of flexibility
Improved flexibility produces a wide range of physical benefits and can have a positive effect on your overall well-being. Here are a few ways that increased flexibility is likely to help you.

1. Fewer injuries
Once you develop strength and flexibility in your body you'll be able to withstand more physical stress. Plus, you'll rid your body of any muscle imbalances, which will reduce your chance of getting injured during physical activity. Correcting muscle imbalances requires a combination of strengthening the under-active muscles and stretching the overactive (tight) ones.

2. Less pain
Your body is likely to feel better overall once you work on lengthening and opening your muscles. When your muscles are looser and less tense, you'll experience fewer aches and pains. Plus, you may be less likely to experience muscle cramps.

3. Improved posture and balance
When you focus on increasing muscular flexibility your posture is likely to improve. Working out your body allows you to have proper alignment and correct any imbalances. Plus, with an increased range of motion you may find it easier to sit or stand in certain ways. Yoga has been shown to improve balance.

4. A positive state of mind
Regularly engaging in poses that stretch and open up your body can bring about feelings of relaxation. The physical benefits can extend to a relaxed state of mind. You may find it easier to unwind once your body feels better.

5. Greater strength
It's important to increase strength as you become more flexible. This ensures your muscles will have the right amount of tension so that they're strong enough to support you and your movements, allowing you to become more physically fit.

6. Improved physical performance
Once you increase your flexibility to allow greater movement in your body you'll be able to perform better physically. This is in part because your muscles are working more effectively.
