Hello everybody I have heard a lot from coaching courses and workshops about the benefits of 'dynamic' stretching warm up in contrast to more traditional 'static' stretches, however no one has ever presented to me any particularly convincing rationale for this popular trend (let alone evidence). Can anyone provide me with any scientific insight into the benefits and/or risks associated with these two kinds of stretching techniques, and why dynamic stretches may be more advantageous than static? Many thanks, AC
