What is Roll Stretching?
Usually when you finish a stretch you relax, change position, go into another stretch, relax, change position, etc. Game Fall’s Roll Stretching™ Method has you roll your body from one stretch into the next. More specifically, you roll the body part that was just stretched, usually at a transverse (perpendicular) angle, into the next stretch. You do not fully relax between positions. This is how our body moves, each muscle moves connected with the one next to it – there is no full relaxing or jumping from one muscle to the next when moving an arm or a leg, and so there is no full relaxing or jumping from one muscle to the next when doing Game Fall stretching. A simple example of this is walking. Your foot moves because the muscles connecting your lower back to your foot work together: the lower back, stomach, upper leg, lower leg, and then foot muscles all must move with each other to move your foot forward. Roll Stretching mimics this connected-muscle moving pattern.
