Jeff: Only dynamic stretching before a game. Static stretching will decrease performance and put you at a greater risk of injury. Static stretching is for after exercise only.

I am looking to get faster, jump higher, etc, like you said static stretching can provide you with in the article above, but I also saw you wrote how you should not static stretch when you are cold. If I am looking to get faster and more athleic when should I static stretch? Also, as you said above you do not static stretch before a game/exercise so does that mean I should only dynamic stretch before a game/exercise? Thanks for the help you answered a LOT of questions I’ve had and helped out a lot.

Jody: straight leg deadlifts can be dangerous if you jump into them cold and over-extend yourself. Is the straight leg deadlift a ‘static lift’? I suppose. If you consider Olympic lifts to be dynamic because they involve more muscles in the body. I don’t really see how an exercise being static or dynamic is important at all, like it is with stretching.

Hey I was working with an online trainer at http://www.illuminategym.com and the online trainer said that doing a straight leg dead lift could be considered a ‘static lift’. I am just curious if this is true or not because I am familiar with Static Stretching even though your blog took it to the next level. Thanks I would love to see what you have to say. Thanks.
