Dr. Oz Says Stretching in Bed is the Best Gift You Can Give Your Body Each Morning (MyWakeUPCalls.com)

Dr. Oz says that stretching in bed is the best gift you can give your body each morning. Here is a stretch you can do when you first wake up:

Lying on your stomach, place the palms of your hands on the bed next to your waist. Inhale for three counts and arch your upper body up, looking at the ceiling with your eyes, while pressing into your hands and straightening your arms. Exhale for three counts and lower back down on the bed. Inhale for three counts, press up, and arch your upper back, exhale, and lower back down on the bed. And, once more, inhaling for three counts and arching up, eyes to the ceiling and exhale for three counts and relax back down. Ahhhh! Good morning, body!

There are many reasons to stretch in bed in the morning. You loosen up your body and unlock any joints that may have tightened up during the night. Stretching also gently warms up your body, so you can wake up and work out more easily. Research shows that you have a much better chance of actually fitting in a workout when you exercise before your daily schedule kicks in. Your metabolism also benefits the most when you elevate it at the start of your day. Lastly, some people have a difficult time falling asleep after exercising in the evening.

Dr. Oz says that stretching in bed is the best thing you can do for your body when you wake up every morning. Here’s a stretch you can do before you get out of bed:
While lying on your back, hug your knees up to your chest and then bring the soles of your feet together, holding your feet with your hands. Gently let your knees open out to the sides. Inhale slowly for three counts. And exhale slowly for three counts, gently increasing the stretch. You may use your elbows to press against your knees, for an even greater stretch, if you’d like. Again, inhale slowly for three counts and exhale slowly for three counts. And once more, inhale for three counts and exhale for three counts.
Ahhhh! Good morning! :)

There are great benefits to stretching in bed in the morning. Stretching loosens up your body and unlocks any joints that may have tightened up during the night. It also gently warms up your body, so you can wake up and work out more easily. Research shows that you have a much better chance of actually working out before your schedule kicks in for the day. Your metabolism benefits the most when you boost it at the beginning of your day, instead of in the evening. And, for some people, exercising in the evening interferes with their sleep cycle.
