Active Isolated Stretching: Forearm Stretches
Active Isolated Stretching works with 3 basic principles
- Contract the apposing muscle to send a signal to let go to the muscle you want to stretch
- In order to increase the stretch apply light pressure at the end of range of motion and hold for 2 seconds
- Allow the muscle to relax into a neutral position after each repetition

You should be focusing on the client being active and how we stabilize the body to isolate the intended muscle group being addressed.
