Stretching - More Important Before Workout Or After?

Re: Poll - Multiple answers can be made in the poll - select all that apply. 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

  • Maybe some physiologies require stretching and others don't? I don't know. I am always baffled by those who don't feel the need to stretch; I feel like I *have* to stretch. I have wondered about this as well. I have never ever been flexible and therefore have adapted my sports to this. It is probably just what a person gets accustomed to and either way is fine.
