Studio : DCT Publisher : DCT Binding : Misc. Product Description When Nic Bartolotta invented the DCT Proflex he was looking to solve a very unique problem... strengthen and stretch the muscles of the ankle. The technique (DCT) that he developed requires the ability to overpower a muscle while it is contracting and force it to lengthen under tension.? A scenario known as an eccentric muscle contraction.? The muscles that cross the Ankle are so incredibly strong, and the foot itself is such an incredibly short lever arm that it is nearly impossible to force an eccentric contraction by hand or by yourself.? The ProFlex attaches to the foot and creates a longer lever arm which gives the user the ability to easily generate the force needed to eccentrically stretch the muscles of the lower leg. 0
