I never knew that tendons other than the Achilles which is the largest should not be stretched. And I've never seen an upper back stretch as effective as what is shown here.

I think if you don't focus on flexibility, you lose what you have, especially with strength training. It's just not because you are older, it's because you never practiced it.
There's plenty of flexible older people but they engage in stretching on a routine basis.
Great site. Glad to know there's lots of stretching options.
