How do I do Active-Isolated Stretching?

There are many types of stretching and flexibility programs that are practiced today with fitness enthusiasts, athletes, and others.  Active-Isolated Stretching is a newer approach to the traditional methods of stretching and has only been recently been brought to the public's attention.  AI Stretching can make substantial improvements in muscle elasticity, adding renewed life and spring to tired out muscles.  It transports oxygen to sore muscles and quickly removes toxins from the muscles, so recovery is faster.

There are two ways you can begin to incorporate Active-Isolated Stretching into your day:
1. 1-on-1 assisted stretching sessions- You can check out my website at www.stretchforfunction.com.
    This is a one hour session that incorporates an assessment to test for Muscle Imbalances and flexibility.
     Here you will begin to learn the AI Stretch Technique and begin to utilize it daily.
2.  AI Stretch DVD- This can be purchased on my website at www.stretchforfunction.com.
     This DVD is an hour full body stretch routine that will teach you the ACTIVE-ISOLATED STRETCH 
     TECHNIQUE.  You will train your muscles to engage and disengage rapidly in an efficient, specific 
      sequence.  

Whichever method of stretching you currently use, why not give AI stretching a try.  You will be amazed by how specifically you stretch exactly where you need it most!!!

Discovering the Power of Active-Isolated Stretching

If you have been following my blog, you have a better understanding how Active-Isolated Stretching differs from Traditional Static Stretching.  Today I would like to share some of the many benefits AIS can provide:

ACTIVE-ISOLATED STRETCHING is a scientifically designed flexibility system that helps the body to function more efficiently by increasing the range of motion of the joint and aiding in neuromuscular re-education.

ACTIVE-ISOLATED STRETCHING WILL:

 *Reduce the risk of muscle and joint injuries
 *Reduce postural tightness due to aging
 *Increase mobility and flexibility
 *Increase Circulation
 *Promote faster recovery
 *Prevent injuries
 *Relieve Pain

Wow, it sounds to good to be true.  I can't stress enough the Power of Active-Isolated Stretching.
