because you can ellicit a
reflexive guarding of the muscle if you set off the
spindle via the
myotactic reflex arc; however, if you do a nice, gentle, small amplitude
"wiggle", you may get some good results - mixing it with intermittent static stretching may help; also the old
contract/relax thing is very efficient as well;
CJ, if you have time, could you elaborate on this section? Specifically the terms in bold and how you mean them contextually in this.
I'm taking the 'contract/relax' as when you go in to a stretch, contract at limit, then relax and extend the stretch. ???
