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 think this makes sense, but if it's the case than maybe stretching should be thought of as entirely separate from swimming, not merely something that should be done before/during/after a swimming workout.
That's how I view it. I usually stretch after drylands or do yoga as a separate workout (sometimes after a swim). Very occasionally, I will stretch at night, but I do dynamic stretching first. I never stretch before or during a swim workout.
