A good idea is to begin your routine with Neck Stretches.

The general program I recommend is found at Stretches. These pages show how to stretch your legs, hips, groin, back, and torso muscles. As you continue, you will find both more advanced stretches as well as what I call workarounds: ways to help you if you have difficulty with certain stretches. These can be found at various locations around the site, and also specifically under Prop Stretches.

After familiarizing yourself with the basics, use the quick index at left.
