Stretch NOTHING! The common misconception is that stretching relieves muscle spasms, wrong! It does just the opposite. What you should do instead is MET. muscle energy technique. If the quads contract, they will automatically release the hamstrings because of their antagonistic relationship. Muscle spindles and golgi tendons are the yin and yang of release and relaxation.
Overstretching of a muscle initiates a stretch reflex spasm where the muscle spindle cells relay a message to the spinal cord, and an efferent message is sent to motor units to contract the muscle, thereby causing a muscle spasm.
