If you don't want to be sore, stretch afterward. Works like magic if you do it properly.

Isn't this KNOWN to be false?

Is it? magus24601 September 28 2009, 19:56:08 UTC

It certainly does seem to help me.

Re: Is it? playertwo September 28 2009, 20:00:47 UTC

Oh well then it's true. Nevermind.

Re: Is it? magus24601 September 28 2009, 20:11:38 UTC

Okay, I'll try again - Is it or is it not knon to be false? You've no doubt heard or read that somewhere, yes? It's a sincere question - snark free, I swear.

Yah I mean I've 'heard' that there is really nothing you can do about DOMS. Some people say stretching helps; others say it does nothing. But I don't really KNOW.

Re: Is it? magus24601 September 28 2009, 20:26:03 UTC

ah, fair enough.

Hmm, well if stiffness is a component of DOMS, maybe what stretching does is relieve that component? I know my hamstrings are always pretty loose but when they have DOMS they get painfully tight so stretching helps that. But it never makes the DOMs go away completely, just partially alleviates that one symptom.

My personal experience supports what I said, so...no, it ain't.
