My #1 favourite stretching aid on this planet. I’ve been using StretchRite
It sure does help me avoid any kind of lower body injuries – hamstrings, quads, hip flexors, calfs, tibia, glutes, groins. I come up with a new stretch with my band every once in a while. If the usual basic stretch doesn’t do it for you, you can change up a stretch a little until it fits you just right. I use it during dynamic stretching or static stretching, and since you control the band movements there is no jerking or bouncing with stretches.
For example, I needed a stretch for my hip flexors, which is a hard muscle to stretch on your own. I hook my foot in one of the loops at the end and while on my side, pull the band over my head keeping my leg at 90 degrees. If you bring your heel towards your butt, you get a really great quad stretch. If you push your heel out more, the hips flexors are being stretched more. So small little changes, could stretch a different muscle.
You can use the hard, ergonomically designed, solid grips to adjust the length of the band to your flexibility and your body’s length. Increase the tension by changing your handgrip position. This also allows you to track and monitor your own progress as you become more flexible.
