As the first day of the Olympics approaches, we are being made aware of the world's top athletes through the many media events. One event rarely covered by the media about an athlete's inter- est or sport is his/her preliminary preparation for the event. All athletes -- before they put on a skate, ski, or boxing glove -- go through a routine of stretching exercises. These exercises are so important to the athlete that dam- age could be caused while partici- pating in the competition if he/she did not prepare thoroughly. Who should stretch? Every- body! Why? Among other things, it: prevents muscle strains; pro- motes circulation; stretches liga- ments and muscles to handle loads; signals muscles that they are about to be used; increases range of motion; and it feels great. Stretching your back and joints before work and at convenient times throughout the day will help you combat strain, fatigue, and aches. There is no limit to the amount of stretching you do, but before you become an enthusiast for this activity, you must start out slowly. Do not rush it. Too many start too quickly, become frustrated and quit. Watch the Olympic athletes; they will stretch up to the time of their event because of its overall benefit to their musculo-skeletal systems. The stretch, in all its simplicity, provides an extremely beneficial effect to the body. Did you know that: The tip of the nose is cartilage - not bone.
