In order to efficiently stretch muscles achieving maximum results we should:
Identify the specific muscles to be stretched.
Isolate the muscles to be stretched by using precise localized movements.
Intensify the contractile effort of the agonist muscles opposite to the antagonist muscles that are reciprocally relaxing and lengthening on the opposite side of the joint. Reciprocal innervation of the muscles to contract will also simultaneously reciprocally inhibit the opposite side muscle to relax and lengthen.
