Improving Flexibility and Strength with Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation provides a detailed overview of the basic principles, concepts, and techniques involved in proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF). In an easy-to-understand and apply manner, the DVD explains and shows how PNF can be effectively employed to develop both flexibility and strength.

Among the topics covered:

• stretch reflex,
• autogenic and reciprocal inhibition,
• muscle action (concentric; eccentric; isometric),
• PNF stretching techniques,
• PNF strengthening techniques,
• and rhythmic initiation and stabilization.
