Finally, an effective stretching device for your Back Shoulders Hips Hamstrings & Shins
Each year we lose flexibility in our muscles, tendons and ligaments. This loss in flexibility directly correlates to increase risk of injury and a decrease in athletic performance. Because the back is the core of our skeletal and muscular system its health is vital to our bodies overall performance. Yet, this is also why the back continues to be one of the leading causes of pain and discomfort. CoreStretch was designed to stretch the back, shoulders and legs better than traditional and conventional methods. Corestretchs unique design elongates the back, stretching the muscles, tendons and ligaments not only in the back, but also those in your legs that work in conjunction with the back. Traditional and conventional back stretching methods are either to difficult to use or force the back to curve instead of elongate. CoreStretch is also light and collapsible making it easy to transport for use anywhere you go. Stretching Guidelines Stretching is more effective after warming up and also after exercise. Never bounce or jerk when stretching Hold each stretch 10-30 seconds Never stretch to the point of pain. Stretch to the point of mild tension in the muscles and then relax as you hold the stretch. Focus on breathing slowly, deeply and naturally. Proper breathing aids relaxation which enhances your stretching success. Proper Technique For best results, it is important that the CoreStretch be properly sized (adjusted in length) and positioned correctly. To position the CoreStretch correctly, first set the padded foam bar on you lap at your waist, approximately the same position as your waist or belt line. It is preferable that the numbers face you, with the number 1 on top and the number 10 on the bottom For proper sizing, adjust the CoreStretch on one of the settings, numbered 1-10. Depress the button and lengthen the CoreStretch to the number which fully extends your arms and straightens your back but still allows for a comfortable grip with your hands. You are now ready to use the CoreStretch. The attached stretching poster demonstrates a variety of stretches that may be performed using the CoreStretch. Please note that there are three levels of stretching and that not all stretches are recommended at each level. For beginners it is recommended that you start in a seated/chair position, working your way up to the intermediate or standing/supported position and if possible the advanced or seated/floor position. |
