Do You Stretch Before You Run? I Certainly Hope...NOT!

Do you stretch before your runs?

If you do, then you need to watch this video. So many runners make the same old mistakes with their warm-ups and stretching routines.

Injuries and poor runs are a result!

Don't fall into the "old school" mentality of training. Learn what works and apply to your training regime.

Use this sample video to get started.

Why confine yourself to one sport when you can cross train for variety? And what's wrong with playing? :)

@assailant85 True but you get good feedback from good results(science) as you say.

[assailant85]

@MrDozier95 please look up the word ignorant first. it has something to do with not knowing and keeping ones opinion even though someone else is knowing it better.

comments are for comments. noone has to believe in what I say. But I for myself can say that I read about the newest scientific research in exactly this topic - stretching to prevent injuries and the results are: don't do it. stretching is for getting flexible, nothing else.

good feedback doesn't prove anything, science does.

[MrDozier95]

@assailant85 Im ignorant because you think you can put comments on peoples videos that what they do does not work. The subject wasnt even relating to ignorance but if thats what you want to bring up it goes all towards you. Just because you think putting a comment like "perfect way to injure yourself before start of the training" you think your just so briliant. But you see this guy gets great feedback on his videos and you think someone will agree with you to bring him down. So whos ignorant?

[assailant85]

@MrDozier95 your selection of words proves your ignorance. thanks - case closed :)

[assailant85]

@MrDozier95 that's because stretching before running is BAD. why? because it doesn't prevent injuries according to science. so? if you stretched you thought you could run fast afterwards but you weren't warmed up properly and had more injuries. with dynamic stretching you probably have a little warm up and thus less injuries but still you can injure while dynamic stretching. the best: just warming up slowy. -> least injuries. trust me. and wikipedia.

[MrDozier95]

@assailant85 Well doesnt matter to me. Im not you so if you want to become worse and be an asshole because you swear you know what you are talking about, you can keep on hurting yourself. "I wont" here nothing about you in sports because your an ass wipe and think what ever you do is working for you. Get your shit shraight. Thats why your probably one of those kids or adults on the videos that people dont even worry about, that people skip a video through cuz they know it will suck

[assailant85]

@MrDozier95 I won't.
