Stretching is a gentle exercise that relaxes your body and imparts strains on specific areas depending on the type of stretching. When you stretch correctly, the feeling of stretch will drop considerably when you hold the stretch. A long held stretch reduces muscle tensions and stiffness. The stretching exercise overall brings about relieving stress and enhancing health of the body. Breathing should be rhythmic to aid the stretching workouts to give maximum benefits. Stretching keeps the body fit by reducing injuries to muscles and prevents soreness of muscles. Stretching completely improves your comfort levels of your muscles and joints. It also keeps you away from body fat, back pain and diabetic problems.  

There are right ways and wrong ways of doing a stretching exercise. The right ways include breathing easily, focusing on muscles to be strengthened, feeling the stretch and tuning the body. Holding the breath, jerking, doing in a hurry, working out when you are tensed are wrong ways of stretching.
