Improving Flexibility and Strength with Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation provides a detailed overview of the basic principles, concepts, and techniques involved in proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF). In an easy-to-understand and apply manner, the DVD explains and shows how PNF can be effectively employed to develop both flexibility and strength.
Among the topics covered:
~ Stretch reflex
~ Autogenic and reciprocal inhibition
~ Muscle action (concentric; eccentric; isometric)
~ PNF stretching techniques
~ PNF strengthening techniques
~ Rhythmic initiation and stabilization
