@Ryalnotch
@Ryalnotch 2 ай бұрын
@@kungfukxnnydeethis is a long explanation so I apologise in advance. TL;DR: a slight bend gives you more voluntary control of the muscle and allows you to teach the body that the new movement is safe for you to perform, leading in the long term to more mobility than just stretching with the muscle fully stretched and relaxed. Flexibility is basically two parts. 1. Is tissues, how physically short your muscle is, faccia, tendons, scar tissue, collagen/muscle ratio in muscles etc. this is worked on by regular stretching causing small breaks and then continued regular stretching while healing so that the healed tissues accounts for the new range of motion(ROM). 2. Is the nervous system/muscle tone and strength. For example, when you’re sedated for surgery you’re strapped in because when fully relaxed your arms can literally dislocate at the shoulder from their own weight. Because it’s your nervous system keeping you in place by telling muscles how much they should be tensed when “relaxed”(tone)and how they should interact with other muscles flexing to prevent injury. To work on this you need to keep the muscle active and be muscularly “in control” of the movements. You need to teach the body that more ROM is safe and that you have the strength to protect yourself. Often 1 is a factor, especially in old people or people with old injuries that were not properly rehabilitated, but 2 is usually more important. In conclusion, when you stretch the joint fully, you put the muscle in its most vulnerable state, it’s very difficult to be in connection with it because it’s where your body already doesn’t trust you to be. By flexing the knees slightly we can keep in contact with the muscle and stretch them, teaching our nervous system that it’s safe for us to be in control of movements in that ROM.

@@charliewilson3369 You do know that is incorrect right? Actually muscular tone is invertially proportional to tendon and ligament elasticity as the muscular tone will always induce an increased resting tension in the muscles which will create a longitudinal pull towards the muscle itself instead, which means decreased elasticity. This means that for a higher muscular tone, you would need some intensive additional stretching to maintain the same level of elasticity. This is obvious as you just have to compare the elasticity of the average man and woman, or between average adults and children. This goes to show that if "being in shape" means any form of a higher muscular tone from the average baseline, your premise of higher flexibility is not only incorrect, but it's actually the complete opposite.

He just made him get his hip internal rotators get involved (which they should be) with the movement. Using a technique called PNF (Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation) which gives your nervous system some feedback so that it can help react.

@@GustavJung5845 sorry bro. Basically he made him activate the muscles in his legs that are used to rotate inward moving from the hip. PNF is just a fancy way of saying if I want you to jump really high, I will get you to use all the muscles involved with jumping somehow. Like doing the reverse, such as hopping off a step and landing into a squat position or into the same position that you start in right before you jump. Hope that makes sense?

Basically getting at a stretch immediately following a muscle contraction - here it’s after the groin muscles (the adductors) -which are also grouped in with some of the hamstrings. By having an isometric contraction squeezing the hands together between the knees, then immediately trying to bend further, you’re essentially doing a hold-relax PNF stretch -which does have acute affects on flexibility.

This is called reciprocal inhibition. Stimulating the muscle spindles in an agonist muscles, the hip adductors here, will relax the golgi tendon organs in the antagonist muscle, the hamstrings here. Works on all joints, try it out!! Just to add, adductors aren’t the main antagonist here, that’s the quads, but they co-contract with the quads so they can assist in reciprocal inhibition, which is a type of PNF stretching. Hope that clears some things up :)

Something similar to this, saved me. It’s about the coccyx. I would put a soccer ball between my knees and squeeze them together. And then I would get a band and pull my knees apart. 10 reps, three sets of each. Did that for a couple of days, it literally cured me of an element I had been frustratingly dealing with for 15 years. The squeeze helped more.
