I will give some facts about Joseph Stalin. You may decide if he is a bad or good guy. 1) Stalin was the leader (dictator) of the Soviet Union from the mid-1920s until his death in 1953. 2) Communist party may consider sudden economic changes as a big achievement but it coincided with the imprisonment of millions of people in Gulag labor camps.
A Dr. Harris McIlwain, MD, Rheumatology, answered. Gently stretch as far as you can, hold the stretch for 30 seconds, and then ease back.

Q On a recent visit to a podiatrist I was given a stretching programme in which I was told to hold each stretch for up to 15 minutes. I was surprised by the length of these stretches, as Ive always been told that you should do stretches in three sets of 30 seconds.eople can be told to hold stretches from a few seconds to a few minutes, and very definite time periods in between. There is a body of evidence that suggests stretch receptors disengage after approximately 30 seconds of stretching. The standard 3 x 30 seconds on that basis is therefore well considered.
