Sports Massage Demo 2: Quads, Thighs & Hamstrings Leg Muscle Athletic Tune-Up Austin In this video, sports massage therapist, Ron Vaughn, explains more about muscles in the legs and why loosening those muscles (specifically the quads, hamstrings, glutes and related muscles) is important to improve performance and to ensure safe exercise with limited injury. This video series shows how to improve leg muscle performance and looks at the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes and other muscles in this video and in future videos will address the hamstrings, glutes, and other muscles surrounding the knee, thighs, butt and hips. Ron also explains how continued exercise on tight muscle can lead to pain or discomfort in the lower back, butt, legs, thighs, and core muscles. He demonstrates a unique technique for relaxing the hamstrings and provides instruction that other therapists may find useful. Ron graduated in 1997 from Austin Schools of Massage in Austin, TX, and also has a Bachelor's degree in Exercise & Sports Science from Southwest Texas State University (aka Texas State University of San Marcos). Ron's knowledge of anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, health & fitness and his experience in athletic training, sports & recreation give him a unique style of sports massage. Ron uses Swedish massage, hydrotherapy, deep tissue, Myofascial release, and trigger point, (ROM) range of motion, stretching, and strength exercises to correct soft tissue dysfunction.
