Does the site have a guide to stretches for runners etc? i havent been able to find one as yet but i havent been into every single section and sub section yet! if not i think it would be a good idea as i am never really sure which stretches are good and which are bad and if it was on here it would save having to look elsewhere online for them and then not be entirely sure they are good enough. |

We don't have a guide to stretching on the site as its a very complex subject and as is evidenced by Mark's post not everyone agrees its a good thing, especially before running. A lot of coaches now lean towards some form of dynamic, rather than static, stretching before although most agree static stretching afterwards is generally good, although not all.... Some would say static stretching of an already stressed muscle may do more harm than good. Sorry we can't be of more help! |

I was actually looking for strectches to do after rather than before running really. I realise that stretching cold muscles is not a good idea at all! |
