Notes Goal of dynamic stretching is to warm up the muscles and loosen up the muscles. Imagine a piece of well chewed gum. Take it out of your mouth and you will be able to stretch it. Put it in the freezer for 15 minutes and it will break if you try to stretch it. Using your muscles cold is like that. Static stretching has been shown to decrease athletic performance. It should only be done for some athletes on select muscles where they are having specific problems. http://fitness.mercola.com/sites/fitness/archive/2013/04/19/pre-workout-stretching.aspx http://www.bu.edu/today/2015/stretch-before-exercise-not-so-fast/ http://www.bodyscapesfitness.com/the-benefits-of-dynamic-stretching-vs-static-stretching/
