what is pnf stretching?
When stretching, it's crucial to consider the stretch reflex, a protective mechanism that causes muscles to contract when stretched abruptly. By slowly easing into stretches and holding them at a point where you feel tension but not pain, you can work with this reflex to gradually increase flexibility without risking injury. Remember to maintain consistency in your stretching routine and be patient with your progress, allowing your muscles time to adapt and improve over time.

Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) stretching is an advanced technique that utilizes stretch reflexes (myotatic and inverse). These reflexes are initiated in response to overstretching and excessive strain to protect muscles and joints. PNF stretching employs a combination of stretching and muscle contractions systematically to override protective mechanisms within the muscles, improving muscle flexibility and pliability for maximum performance.
