Is streching out right before intense exercise bad?

December 16th, 2009 · 2 Comments



Sombody told me that research was done at harvard and they said that stretching puts your muscles to sleep. So they say stretching out before intense exercise like lifting weights is actually bad for you. They rather recommend doing a warmup set instead of strechting so my question is when is it the best time to stretch?

      There are more facile ways to lose weight apart from diet and exercise. You can have a diet supplement which flushes out the pipes, you will lose up to 20 pounds this way - plus the weight disappears in the desired areas as well! There’s a risk free trial at http://dumert.besthealthpro.info

      I may have heard something about this.. it makes some sense, so research it, and just go by that and warm up instead
