A Unique Method of Flexibility Training Continues to Help People Gain Mobility

With over 20 years of experience in the field of kinesiology, Paul Zaichik is known for forever changing the game when it comes to health and fitness by developing an innovative method of flexibility training that is geared towards changing the future of physical fitness and sport resilience.  

Paul Zaichik is the founder of EasyFlexibility. EasyFlexibility offers over a hundred different programs for individuals that want to increase their flexibility and for athletes that want to enhance their performance. Paul has always been interested in muscle anatomy and stretching as a way to increase mobility in people with chronic pain and to increase movement and stamina for those invested in sports. 

His desire to create such a program came from observing his friend, who at the time, was a competitive swimmer. He had sustained an injury that caused the back of his shoulder muscles to tighten. His friend had exhausted every possible solution, yielding no results. Paul could see that he was struggling to stretch the posterior deltoid, and then he noticed something; when he moved laterally in a stretch, the stubborn muscle suddenly elongated. 

Because of Paul’s extensive knowledge of muscle anatomy, he was able to connect the dots. He observed that the stiff muscle would actually stretch when its other action would engage. Seeing this, led to the development of his own methods, which he named Zaichik Stretching Techniques. He had initially used the name Kinesiological Stretching Techniques because each technique is based on the science of kinesiology and the muscle lines of pull that boast mobility and awareness.

Paul explains that he uses a movement system called “Target and Leverage” which allows the muscle to stretch or wiggle at each movement. Zaichik Stretching Techniques are combined with special retention exercises that maintain the flexibility gained in every training session. Each technique isolates and elongates the muscle along its anatomical line of pull. 

These methods are now being taught by certified instructors in martial arts dojos, gymnastic gyms, wellness centers, and dance studios. Even yoga studios use these methods to further their client’s flexibility. “With the number of certified instructors exponentially on the rise, I envision that Easyflexibility will eventually be taught in stand-alone schools,” Paul shares. “We currently offer online certification courses for instructors interested in teaching these techniques.” 

To get started and monitor your own progress, simply select a program based on your goals. Then, go to your online library and join the support group. After that, begin training and track your progress with the Stretch 180 App. The Zaichik stretching method is completely different from other programs in that it is meant to help you excel in your other exercise programs, facilitating better results.
