Experts & 2 day courses ..tag.comment.share. Christian Woodford B.App.Sci (HONS) I always find it funny that individuals who complete a 2 day course think bec...ause they did they automatically become "experts" on that specific area. A perfect example would be; 1. Crossfit - 2 day course and become an expert on athletic preparation ...because Olympic lifting = expert on athletic development & 2.

Some interesting stats and common stretching Myths #1 Stretching decreases the chance of injury A systematic review of the literature found that there was not sufficient evidence to either endorse or discontinue routine stretching before or after exercise to prevent injury. Much of the... confusion stems from the idea of stretching after a warm-up. Warm-up prevents injury, whereas stretching has no effect on injury. #2 Muscles become longer after stretching After stretching exercises, the muscles and tendons increase their ability to stretch. In the case of static stretching, the muscles and tendons can remain stretched and potentially weakened for upwards of 15 minutes. This is called ‘stretch lag’ period or ‘tendon slack’. #3 An individual’s level of total body flexibility can be measured by one joint Flexibility is joint specific. Different joints will be more flexible than others and doing stretching exercises at one joint will not transfer to other joints in the body. #4 Acute stretching improves sporting performance Research has found that regular stretching improves force, jump height, and speed for sporting performance; however, there is no evidence that increased flexibility is of benefit to all athletes. Some sports require the body to be flexible (e.g., synchronized swimming, gymnastics) whereas others do not require a high level of flexibility to be competitive (e.g., baseball, football)
