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
Dynamic stretches are not ballistic stretches - they are stretches that involve movement patterns that do not take a muscle too close to its elastic limit. They prepare the muscles for activity by warming tissues and doing range of motion activities that prep the joints.
I do DS before exercise and static stretches at the end to lengthen out the tissues and release toxins that build up in the tissues. I break these stretches out into 2 parts my new DVD, Personal Best Stretch: Move Better Than Ever. I have more information on this on my web site.
