I have heard people say it's better to stretch before workout and others say it is better to stretch during/after workouts.
I have also heard people say stretching before is a good way to hurt yourself.
I have always believed stretching before workout is better and have swum better.
I wanted to get your feedback and links if any supporting your views.
Thanks
I almost always stretch after.
However, if I have a dryland + swim day and I stretch right after drylands, I feel better in the water afterward.
I'm not sure you're going to hurt yourself stretching before if you are already flexible and stretch regularly. If not, I can see the possibility of something going awry. If I stretch before or in an isolated stretching session, I usually do some dynamic stretching before the static stretching.
