LEG AND HIP STRETCHING FOR ATHLETES #LEG
Barry Bailey, MS, LMT
Active Stretching Instructor/Coach
In this class you will learn the same Active Isolated Stretching (AIS) being used by the world's top athletes. Mikhail Baryshnikov, Michael Johnson and the Baltimore Orioles are just a few of the athletes who warm-up, stretch, train, compete, and win medals using AIS. By using AIS, you can discover a new athletic potential that may have seemed lost because of age, tight, painful muscles or an injury. AIS will increase your flexibility and range-of-motion, increase your muscle growth and strength, quickly reduce muscle fatigue, soreness and pain, balance opposing muscles, and speed recovery from overuse and injury. Regular Active Isolated Stretching helps to prevent future injuries by restoring the muscles to work at full capacity (a tight muscle is not working at its full potential). Active Isolated Stretching will noticeably increase your flexibility and range-of-motion in ONE SESSION, ultimately giving you a distinct advantage over your fellow athletes. When using AIS you will be able to train harder and longer, recover and heal faster and get overall better results. This class is valuable for athletes of all levels, from the casual athlete to the professional. Leg and Hip Stretching for Athletes will complement your training (it should be an integral part of your training), improve your competition and speed your recovery and rehabilitation. Please bring an exercise mat, heavy blanket or sleeping bag for floor work. Wear exercise clothing that will allow free, unrestricted movement A changing room is available at the Learning Center. Limit 10.
