Follow the sequence indicated in these stretching illustrations.

When stretching, remind yourself to move slowly into a stretch where you feel resistance, but no pain. Hold that position and breathe deeply and slowly for 5-10 seconds. Stretch both sides of your body when the illustration calls for arm or leg stretching. When the illustration calls for shoulder rotation, perform five rotations in each direction.
