Health is a treasure that is given to us only once in our lives. It is our duty to take care of it from our childhood. The better you take care of your health, the happier, longer, and more active a life you can lead.

If you are not happy with your results, please don’t panic. Bend over 30 times a day, and you will have surprising results in a month.

Tibetan sages said that the body age of a person depends on the condition of his liver, which is connected with flexibility. Everyone knows that a sedentary lifestyle influences both the muscles and organs negatively.

By bending at least 30 times a day, you will make your ligaments and tendons stronger. The best news is that you can improve your flexibility at any age.

Important: Consult your doctor before beginning an exercise plan.
