Answer 1

Stiff and tight muscles can constrict nerves in the back. When these nerves are constricted, it can result in sensations of pain throughout the back, especially the lower back.

Answer 2

Correct matches:

1. When the joints move more easily (decreased joint stiffness)

2. results in fewer varicose veins (improved circulation)

3. comes from equally worked antagonistic muscles ((improved posture)

4. when the muscles and joints are more flexible (improved range of motion)

5. lowers blood pressure and blood sugar (improved the ability to relax)

6. measures back and leg flexibility (standard sit-and-reach test)

7. slide together to shorten a muscle (myofibrils)

8. a by-product of exercise (lactic acid)

9. performed by trying to grab your hands behind your back (shoulder flexibility test)

10. the muscle cells (muscle fibers)

11. the front and back muscles of your leg (antagonistic muscles)

12. reduces the chance of muscle injury (flexibility exercises)
