An AT is using PNF stretching techniques to improve an athlete GH joint motion. The AT positions the athlete in a supine position with the GH joint in 90* of abduction and the elbow flexed to 90*. The athlete performs a concentric contraction of the internal rotators until the end of the range is reached. The athlete then preforms an isometric contraction of the external rotators. This is followed by a relaxation of the shoulder musculature and then a contraction of the internal rotators concentrically to achieve a stretch. Which of the following PNF stretching techniques is being employed?
