Upper Extremity PNF Diagonal Patterns EXPLAINED

The video tutorial explains PNF patterns, focusing on D1 and D2 diagonal movements. It covers flexion and extension positions, using analogies like seat belts and swords to illustrate the movements. The tutorial emphasizes understanding over memorization, encouraging learners to visualize and reason through the patterns. It also highlights the importance of shoulder movements in these patterns and provides strategies for learning them effectively.
