A concentric muscle action of the agonist, called agonist contraction, is used during a passive stretch of the antagonist to achieve reciprocal inhibition. Each of these techniques also involves passive, static stretches that are referred to as relax.
What is antagonist contract method?
Antagonist-Contract Method: The participant then performs a contraction through the antagonist’s muscle and not the agonist/target muscle – in this case, the participant would contract the quadriceps muscle and relaxes the hamstring.
What is contract relax agonist contraction stretching?
CRAC – (Contract-Relax and Agonist Contraction) A PNF stretching protocol in which the antagonist is maximally contracted isometrically for 5 seconds, then relaxed for 5 seconds. During this “relax” phase the agonist ismaximally contracted in an effort to further stretch the antagonist.
