1 STRETCHING WHY STRETCH Stretching, because it relaxes your mind and tunes up your body, should be part of your daily life. You will find that regular stretching will do the following things: Reduce muscle tension and make the body feel more relaxed. Help coordination by allowing for freer and easier movement. Increase range of motion (ROM) Prevents injuries such as muscle strains. (A strong pre-stretched muscle resists stress better than a strong, unstretched muscle.) Makes strenuous sporting activities easier because it prepares you for activity; its a way of signalling the muscles that they are about to be used. Develop body awareness. As you stretch various parts of the body, you focus on them and get in touch with them. You get to know yourself. Help loosen the mind's control of the body so the body moves for "its own sake" rather than for competition or ego. Promotes circulation. It feels good. HOW TO STRETCH The Easy Stretch When you begin a stretch, spend seconds in the easy stretch. No bouncing! Go to the point where you feel a mild tension (pathological motion barrier) and relax as you hold the stretch. The feeling of tension should subside as you hold the position. If it does not, ease off slightly and find a degree of tension that is comfortable. The easy stretch eases muscular tension and readies the connective tissue for the developmental stretch. The Developmental Stretch After the easy stretch move slowly into the developmental stretch. Again, no bouncing. Move very slightly further into the stretch to a new pathological motion barrier and hold for seconds. Be in control. Again the tension should diminish; if not, ease off slightly. Repeat several times to gradually increase flexibility MCPT Stretching Techniques Diploma (HLT50307) Version 1 13 Feb
2 Breathing Your breathing should be slow, rhythmical and under control. If you are bending forward to do a stretch, exhale as you bend forward and then breathe slowly as you hold the stretch. Do not hold your breath while stretching. If a stretch position inhibits your natural breathing pattern then you are obviously not relaxed. Just ease up on the stretch so you can breathe naturally. Counting At first silently count the seconds for each stretch. This will ensure that you hold the proper tension for a long enough time. After a while you will stretch by the way it feels without the distraction of counting. The Stretch Reflex Your muscles are protected by a mechanism called the stretch reflex. When you overstretch or do ballistic type stretching a nerve impulse from the muscle spindle and/or golgi tendon organs initiates muscle contraction in an attempt to prevent muscle injury. Therefore, when you stretch too far, you tighten the very muscles you are trying to stretch. Holding a stretch as far as you can go or bouncing up and down strains the muscles and activates the stretch reflex. These harmful methods cause pain, as well as physical damage due to microscopic tearing of muscle fibres. This tearing leads to the formation of scar tissue in the muscles with a gradual loss of elasticity. The muscles become tight and sore which is counter-productive to what you are trying to achieve. TYPES OF STRETCHES Static Self Stretch (Slow Held Stretch = Easy > Developmental Stretch) Ballistic Stretch Static Assisted (Passive) - done by therapist/partner Assisted (Active) - Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) 2007 MCPT Stretching Techniques Diploma (HLT50307) Version 1 13 Feb
3 THRESHOLD OF TRAINING Type Frequency Intensity Duration STATIC 3 days per week Stretch as far as you can go without pain with slow movement. Hold at the end ROM BALLISTIC 3 days per week Stretch muscle beyond normal length with gentle bounce or swing. Do not exceed 10% of antagonist-static ROM PNF 3 days per week Same as static but use an isometric contraction of the muscle prior to stretch. Hold the stretch for a minimum of 10 sees. 3 sets of 5 reps with a 10 second rest between sets. Hold isometric contraction for 6 secs. Hold stretch 10 secs. Repeat 3 times. TARGET ZONES Type Frequency Intensity Duration STATIC 3 to 7 days per week When antagonist stretch Hold secs is used the muscle should 5 sets of 5-10 reps be stretched as far as possible but only through contraction of the antagonist muscles. BALLISTIC 3 to 7 days per week When assisted stretch is used the muscle should not be stretched more than 10% beyond its normal ROM and it should not reach the point of pain. Care should be taken to avoid overstretch. PNF 3 to 7 days per week When assisted stretch is used the muscle should not be stretched more than 10% beyond its normal ROM and it should not reach the point of pain. Care should be taken to avoid overstretch. Hold isometric contraction 6 secs for 1-3 sets Hold stretch secs for 1-3 sets MCPT Stretching Techniques Diploma (HLT50307) Version 1 13 Feb
