Stretch Your Way to Better Health




By Dr. Joseph Mercola





If you ever thought stretching was useful then you simply must get The Genius of Flexibility by Bob Cooley, as it will be one of the best investments you could ever make to improve your flexility. I have spent many days with Bob and I have experienced the powerful effects of his stretching system. Unbelievable is the best one word description.

There is no question in my mind that he is the top expert in the world in stretching. He has obliterated nearly every conventional view on stretching and has helped many professional athletes recover from injuries.

He is singularly responsible for contributing to large numbers of Olympic gold medals for the U.S., and many professional athletes are now playing again thanks to Bob. The real genius behind this book is Bob.

Why Stretch?

Most people know that proper stretching can help you maintain youth, vigor, and flexibility well into advancing age. Studies have shown that stretching:
    Benefits connective tissue, which supports and protects your vital organs Triggers the growth of the protein filaments inside each muscle cell, essential to proper body movement Improves the performance of your "spindle receptors", which help protect your muscles against injury


The Genius of Flexibility is the Best Guide I've Ever Read to Help You:


    Increase your overall flexibility and fitness

    Achieve greater mental and physical health

    Ward off illness and disease

    Achieve spiritual balance

Fewer people are aware that regular stretching routines, done correctly, can also have numerous other benefits, including:
    Preventing illnesses Warding of degenerative diseases Psychological healing and balance


Do It Right

Improper stretching, however, can cause as many problems as proper stretching solves. Many physicians and exercise physiologists now agree, for example, that "rigorous bouncing" (also called "ballistic stretching"), which was popular for a while, has a good chance of causing injury.

So, how can you find out the right ways to stretch, the methods that will increase your health, vigor, and youthfulness?

The Genius of Flexibility

Bob Cooley's groundbreaking new book The Genius of Flexibility will give anyone the tools to achieve this goal. Not only does it give you step by step instructions on what to do, but it actually represents a vast improvement over previous stretching regimens, to the point that it is very nearly an entirely new discipline of health care.

When Bob Cooley was trying to regain limb motion after a drunk driver crashed into him in 1976, he discovered the secret of resistance stretching -- simultaneously contracting and elongating muscles. His movement range instantly increased dramatically, and soon reached amazing levels as he perfected his technique.

Improving Past Techniques

Over time, he added to and developed his discovery, and along the way he reproduced, and improved, the practices of Hatha Yoga, biopsychology, and traditional Chinese medicine.

Research has shown that yoga can have results such as:
    Reduced anxiety and stress Sound sleep Clear sinuses Improved sports performances Relief from constipation and headaches Reduced allergy and asthma symptoms Relief from menstrual cramps Lower blood pressure


A variety of studies have also shown that Traditional Chinese Medicine can offer such benefits as easing pain following surgery, improving mobility for people with multiple sclerosis, and relieving the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome.

It can also help relieve:
    Arthritis Sinusitis Headache PMS Back pain Nausea


All of these benefits, and more, can be gained from Bob Cooley's innovative combination of therapeutic stretching techniques. He has combined his thirty years worth of learning, teaching, and practical application into the Meridian Flexibility System, which he has made available to all in The Genius of Flexibility.

Essential for Your Muscles, Your Health, and Your Mind

The book includes sixteen stretches and exercises that both lengthen and strengthen sixteen different muscle groups, plus tips on:
    Lifestyle changes, Psychological keys, and Traditional self-healing methods.


The Meridian Flexibility System has been used with amazing success by world-class athletes like five-time Olympic medalist Dara Torres, renowned athletic coaches, and just plain ordinary people. They've all found that the system improved their bodies, their minds, and their overall capabilities.

A Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Workout

The techniques in The Genius of Flexibility will actually help you ward off disease, improve your diet, become more emotionally stable, and even achieve spiritual balance. The Meridian Flexibility System's stretches use the same energy meridians known for centuries to traditional Chinese medicine to heal your body and your mind.

Not only will you become free of chronic pain and more resistant to illness, but you'll find yourself:
    Becoming more engaged in life Making better choices Living more Suffering less


Avoid Athritis and Stiffness Due to Aging

Everyone would like to be more flexible, and stay that way. No one wants to suffer through decreased mobility, joint and muscle pain, limited activity, and stiffness of the limbs. However, many believe that those are the inevitable cost of advancing age. Bob Cooley's remarkable innovations will allow you to enjoy a fit and capable body your whole life long.

You'll experience more fluidity in your movements, greater power, strength, and endurance, and increased vigor and resilience. The Genius of Flexibility.
