2017年8月8日 · Contract-relax stretching is a form of PNF stretching. PNF stands for proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation. What does that mean? It means that it uses natural reflexes to further the stretching response. In contract-relax stretching, you must first isometrically contract the opposite muscle.

2017年7月9日 · Another common PNF technique is the contract-relax stretch. It is almost identical to hold-relax, except that instead of contracting the muscle without moving, the muscle is contracted while...

2023年6月18日 · Contract-relax (CR) method. Also known as the hold-relax method, this involves lengthening the target muscle and holding it in that position while contracting. ‌ You can perform a CR stretch by...

2022年2月14日 · To perform contract-relax stretching, isometrically contract the opposing muscle first. Then, after contracting, try to stretch the intended target point further. For example, you could isometrically contract your triceps (opposite the biceps) for 10 seconds.

What is a contract-relax stretch? A contract-relax stretch (CRS) is a form of Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) stretching. It is a technique used to improve flexibility by contracting the muscle before it is stretched.

2019年5月22日 · Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) is a more advanced form of flexibility training. PNF involves both stretching and contracting (activation) of the muscle group being targeted in order to achieve maximum static flexibility.

2023年1月24日 · contract-relax stretching means the use of natural reflexes to further the stretching response. In contract-relax stretching, first, isometrically contract the opposite muscle. Then after contracting the opposite muscle, try to further stretch the excepted target muscle.

2022年1月24日 · Contract-relax: The contract-relax method involves placing a muscle in a passive stretch and having a partner apply active pressure against the contracted muscle for 5–10 seconds. For example, a common PNF hamstring stretch involves lying on your back with one leg raised in the air.

Discover the Contract-Relax (CR) PNF Stretching technique to boost your flexibility and mobility. This video offers a quick tutorial on using muscle contraction before stretching to...

2020年1月7日 · PNF is an advanced stretching technique that focuses on contracting and stretching targeted muscle groups. Typically doing PNF stretching requires a partner to help you with the stretches. You could also get the same results using a …
