  3. Contract and relax (contract through ROM) ; MRE style concentric
27
Q

How are muscles able to increase their ROM through active inhibition stretching?

A

Muscle becomes RELAXED becuase it’s FATIGUE, thus target muscle will RECOVER = ↑ ROM in stretch (autogenic inhibition)

What is pseudomyostatic contracture?

A

Pseudomyostatic contracture: apparent limit of motion due to hypertonicity
