[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the difference between active and static stretching? [/quote] Basically active stretching is holding the stretch for about 8-10 secs and static stretching is a deeper stretch 30 secs or so. AS should be done before workout and SS after. Nothing is set in stone of course, some studies say AS may not be useful for muscles and just warming up is good enough. There is no real conclusive evidence that AS will prevent injuries or increase range of motion prior to working out. SS is more important at the end of the workout as studies have shown. [/quote]
