Prophylaxis - Great thread bro. Very timely as I just had an hour-long massage this morning. There was quite a lot of tension in my rotator cuff and other parts of my upper back. I've neglected stretching in my weightlifting regimen which was a mistake in hindsight. Relaxed, loose muscles are better and healthier muscles. Going to incorporate a lot of stretching /calisthenics and sauna therapy in my daily routine. +1.
Thanks man.
The people I rarely see in the clinic are the ones who stretch regularly and progress their lifting regimes appropriately. As you said, by keeping muscles at their optimal length (i.e. stretching) they function better and literally allow you lift more/run faster etc. Good stuff!
Let me know if you have any questions re: exercises.
