I have searched this site for any stretching info I can find, and have had minimal success.
Long story short, I have heard conflicting arguments on the need for stretching. I stretch as much as possible, but have heard that stretching can INCREASE your risk of stress fractures. I have read reports from both sides, and am confused, to say the least. Stretching has always been an integral part of PT for me, starting at BCT. As previously stated, I stretch as much as possible...might stretching too much be a problem?
Thank you for any response,
