@Ryalnotch2 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.

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.

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.

Doing the first stretch makes the second easier, you are more flexible. Squeezing the fists makes no difference. Try it. Stretch and hold for 5 seconds, straighten up then try touching your toes or the floor.

Moved his feet from being together to being slightly apart. That’s why he got him to put his fists between them, to create a gap.
@muttswob4239Ай бұрын
you bend the knees on the second try. I tried it out twice. The second time made sure my knees were locked and did the stretch properly and wasn't able to go all the way down like I did round 1.

Se llaman elongación balística autoasistida, funciona con una gran parte de segmentos del cuerpo. Al realizar una elongación balística, aumenta el rango artícular y de flexibilidad. Muy bueno para lesiones

Neat!! Never knew that one! You can get a similar effect by hopping in place 10 or 15 times (the body relaxes) and then you can immediately touch your toes w/ no problem! Learned that on JP daytime TV :P

Wow this works I didn't touch my toes but definitely moved more then before ..Thanks fir the positive video
@loud_laughter2 ай бұрын
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.

I just did it. It took me two times with the knees squeeze, but each time got better. I have a disc herniation, so my toe touching ability is terrible. I’ll take any non-chemical hack I can get!

Whats really cool about this technique is it helps your problem areas without having to do work directly on the bad areas. Also it has dramatic results in less than one minute. Can also be combined with other techniques like assisted stretching and tense and relax. Very cool tech.
