My coach today told me that cooling down at the end of practice was not good for the body. He said it could rip muscles that were just worked. I have always been taught that the cool down was important, especially after working hard and getting the heart rate up.
Keep in mind that this is an USA-S practice and those I'm swimming with are teenagers.
I'm curious what others think?
This is why it seems like this coach can't possibly be saying that! It makes absolutely no sense at all.
I agree. And what shocks me is that I agree with almost every thing he says and does with us and then he hit me with this odd notion.
