StretchRITE Stretching Strap |
The StretchRITE stretch trainer will help you stretch better, more efficiently and more comfortably.A patented strength training device invented by exercise physiologist Scott Powers, StretchRITE is used by the USA Track & Field National Team. The StretchRITE program emphasizes stretching the speed muscles such as the quads, hip flexors, hamstrings and glutes. You dont need a trainer because the stretch trainer allows you to get into the right body position to isolate the muscle.StretchRITE is designed using heavy duty nylon webbing and ABS plastic for the six oblong plastic ergonomically designed handgrips on each end that fit nicely into the palm of your hands. You simply hook the middle part of the strap (no grips on that short section) around various parts of a limb or appendage, and then hold the handgrips while stretching. For instance, sitting on the floor with legs extended straight in front, you loop the strap around your feet, grab the handgrips and pull into a low back/hamstring stretch - great for those who cant normally reach their feet comfortably. The plastic grips offer better grip and also allow the user some way to measure progress since you may notice youre able to reach, say, the second one when before you could only reach the first. A great concept since we think one thing that keeps people from stretching is the lack of noticable progress. The device comes with a simple foldout poster that depicts 20 exercises with an illustration and a label as to which muscle group is being stretched. The StretchRITE really does help deepen the stretches, which can feel great, plus it makes the whole flexibility thing seem more productive! Shipping Included.
