Should You Stretch Before Lifting?

The answer isn't yes or no. It's 'what kind, and why'.

Static stretching before lifting

Prolonged static stretches (>30 seconds) before heavy lifting can reduce power output. Save them for cooldowns.

Dynamic mobility drills

Dynamic warm-ups increase range of motion without dropping strength, making them the ideal pre-lift protocol.

Corrective drills

Targeted release + activation of dormant tissue before your working sets is the highest-ROI warm-up for anyone with imbalances.
