Everyday Health reported on Mar. 9 that it has identified the six best stretches for men, featuring recommendations from Zachary Rogers, a physical therapist and orthopedic clinical specialist at Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS).
The article focuses on a stretching routine designed to target muscle groups that commonly tighten in men, including the hip flexors, hamstrings, quads, calves, piriformis, and pectoral muscles. Rogers said performing these stretches four or five times a week can help improve flexibility in these areas.
Rogers told Everyday Health that regular stretching is important for maintaining mobility and preventing tightness in key muscle groups. He recommended focusing on these specific areas because they are often affected by daily activities and sedentary habits.
The Hospital for Special Surgery contributes to community health by providing specialized orthopedic care and advancing musculoskeletal research, according to the official website. The hospital has achieved consistent top rankings in orthopedics and holds multiple Magnet designations for nursing excellence, according to the official website.
HSS also extends its specialized orthopedic services through partnerships in regions such as Southwest Florida, according to the official website. The hospital is known for delivering high-quality care aimed at improving mobility and advancing research in fields such as orthopedic surgery and rheumatology, according to the official website.
