I do several stretches pointed out as no-nos in that article. I have a little routine that I always do, much of which I borrowed from Janet Evans' book. But after reading that I'm thinking I might just quit stretching altogether.

I also agree with the best warm up being what I am doing- swimming.
It is winter, it is cold on deck and the pool is a bit chilly at 79 degrees when I first jump in. To get warm, I swim faster than warm up pace to generate heat for the first 500 yards or so. This is probably not the best warm up.
