Stunting your growth is a complete myth. 


It does the correct opposite! your spine plays a major role in heights. Contortion helps loosen up those vertebrates hence it makes you taller!


Just like gymnastics, contortion doesn’t stunt your growth unless you get a serious injury which affects a big part. 


2)It hurts your spine 


Just like the first one this is absolutely false! 


It doesn't hurt your spine, in fact it actually helps it!


Remember that “sit in a straight posture” line?


With contortion you can say goodbye to that phrase! Your spine is twisted into “weird” poses.


3)It gives you injuries in the future

People say that doing contortion can lead to serious injuries in the future. 


Well guess what … That’s a myth! 


If the body is moving properly, there is less stress placed on it during exercise, leading to a lesser chance of being injured!


4)All contortionists are double jointed/naturally flexible

We can truly say that is false!


There are many famous contortionists who weren't double jointed or flexible at the beginning!


It took them patience and endurance


Following their footsteps is a great idea to start!


5)Contortion hurts

When your muscles have the right elasticity and length, stretches that look painful can actually feel quite comfortable. 


It only hurts if you are stretching beyond your limit.but that's fine .


There's always a time to bend your limits!


That's all we have for today!

See ya!πŸ˜„
