Resistance Flexibility compared to Traditional Stretching: Traditional stretching maximally lengthen muscles in attempting to increase flexibility. Traditional does not work otherwise everyone would already be flexible, and stay flexible throughout their lives.

Resistance Flexibility is based on the scientific discovery that muscles need to contract while being stretched, like how all animals stretch. As the muscles eccentrically contract while being stretched, the muscles release enzymes that result in transfiguration of the fascia and regeneration of the other tissues. Muscles eccentrically contract while being elongated to produce immediate, cumulative, and sustainable increases in flexibility and strength. Predictable concomitant benefits can occur for each of the 16 different types of RFT stretches: biomechanical, physiological, psychological, emotional, and spiritual. RFT is a subtractive technology removing the traumas and ADFST.

WARNING: Without the contraction of the muscles during the stretch, potential damage can occur to joint structures and increases in flexibility do not occur and are not sustainable. Science and RFT research presented.

COURSE OBJECTIVE Practice 16 types of Self RFT Stretches — Eight for the lower body and eight for the upper body. Experience how fascial resistance during stretching has 2-6 X’s the resistive force compared to those muscle’s maximal strength. Dramatic changes in fascia from RFT. Using tension and contraction while stretching helps to prevent injury while dramatically increasing flexibility and strength. Learn the foundational principles about flexibility and strength- four aspects of stretching, the 5 conscious choices, 3 Dimensional Vectors for each muscle group, need for strength versus stretch, balancing muscle groups, variations for each stretch, recovery,…
