Q

To perform this procedure, move limb to the point that tissue resistance is felt in the range-limiting target m. Then have the pt perform a resisted, pre stretch isometric contraction of the range limiting muscle followed by voluntary relaxation of that m. and an immediate concentric contraction of the agonist m.

Q

The range limiting target m is first lengthened to the point of tissue resistance. The pt then performs a pre-stretch, end-range, isometric contraction (~5 s) followed by voluntary relaxation of the range limiting target m. The limb is then passively moved into the new range

A

Hold relax stretching technique
- note: rotators of the limb (i.e., shoulder m’s) can contract concentrically while all other muscle groups should contract isometrically
