rhythmic initiation - warm up, getting things going, judging lever length, passive then active assisted
combination of isotonics - demand concentric muscle action - isometric in middle , eccentric on way down
reversal of agonists :
dynamic reversals - 1 pattern to opposite demand concentric of opposite
stabilising reversals - through small range not too much resistance
rhytmic stabilisation - rotator cuff - isometric "dont let me move you" keep them in one point
hold relax - dont let me move you - } make muscles relax
contract relax - move me - } increase rom
contraindication
