FOR BEST RESULTS AND PROPER TECHNIQUE
- CoreStretch must be properly sized and positioned correctly. For proper sizing, adjust the CoreStretch by using the settings numbered 1-10. Depress the button and lengthen the CoreStretch to the number which fully extends your arms and straightens your back but still allows for a comfortable grip with your hands.
- Never bounce or jerk when stretching.
- Hold stretch for 10-30 seconds.
- Never stretch to the point of pain. Stretch to the point of mild tension in the muscles and then relax as you hold the stretch.
- Focus on breathing slowly, deeply and naturally. proper breathing aids relaxation which enhances your stretching success.
PLEASE NOTE:
If you have had any recent physical problems or surgery, or if you are just beginning to exercise, especially after a long absence, please consult your physician.
As with any new stretching technique, it is recommended that you start slowly using the beginner positions and then gradually progress to the more advanced positions and techniques.
