What are these sources "I've posted" that you are referencing? I've not posted any "sources" so much as suggest you, the OP, are the latest of many to initiate a discussion that is little more than a thinly veiled opportunity to say, "I'm smarter than everyone else."

Oh, my apologies. I actually thought you were eqttrdr. So even better, you've posted nothing but an opinion. Wow...solid! I can totally see why HC supports you.

Much like you. The difference is I actually am aware what I've posted is just an opinion.

Yes, I'll make NSCA know about this and the studies that support their article. Priceless. Why do I bother. Think I'll go enjoy my holiday. This is an exercise in futility.

It was a solid article, most of which I agree with. Where it's still opinion is the absurd notion it's universal.

Enjoy your holiday weekend.

Stretch Before Exercise? Not So Fast. | BU Today | Boston University


None the less, if I feel tight I will stretch before hand. I find I constantly adjust how I work out depending on how I feel.

And then they scratch their heads when they strain something.
Anyone with a proper lifting program will incorporate warm up sets into their routine. You probably just do not notice this.

The need for foam rolling, active stretching, etc, is just BS; do those things after the workout, not before.
