Improve Muscle Tissue Quality: Part I

The muscle in your body is much like a rubber band. Some are thick and strong, others are thin and weak. When in good health, it stretches and recoils. Now, let’s say that rubber band is broken and the ends are reattached with a piece of string. Now when that rubber band is stretched, it will be stretched everywhere except for where the string is. Now when a muscle is strained, whether slight micro tears or a full blown tear, it develops scar tissue. This scar tissue becomes much harder, like the string, and does not move freely. That scar tissue restricts movement, causing large amounts of strain on the surrounding muscles and joints, often causing further injury and pain.
