2nd Phase of the Corrective Exercise To lengthen those overactive or tight
Continuum neuromyofascial tissues.
Lengthening Refers to the elongation of mechanically shortened
muscle and connective tissue necessary to
increase range of motion (ROM) at the tissue and
joint.
Static and Neuromuscular 2 stretching methods focused on by NASM
Goal of each form of stretching Improving available ROM at a joint increasing tissue
extensibility, and enhancing neuromuscular
efficiency.
Static stretching The most common flexibility training technique
used by health and fitness professionals. It is used
to increase the extensibility muscle and connective
tissue (lengthening) and thus ROM at a joint.
Mechanical and Neural adaptations Products of static stretching that result in increased
ROM
Viscoelastic component Mechanically, static stretching affects this part of
neuromyofascial tissue.
Decrease in the passive resistance This occurs in a muscle in regards to a stretch force
throughout most of the ROM and not the rate at
which the muscle-tendon unit increases its stiffness.
Not as resistant to being stretched Allowing for better extensibility
