Currently in excruciating pain because I lifted and didn’t stretch.
Don’t be like me

@FailurePersonified People who tell you not to stretch are the ones who always get joint problems.....

It’s so true and I’m still so fuckin stupid.
I fall into the mistake of not realizing I was doing crazy shit and since I was feeling great that day, didn’t think to stretch.
Now I’m carefully stretching and moving slowly for the next day or so lol

@curiousthinkerunderground @FailurePersonified > don't think stretching is the problem
Its 100% the problem, in fact i bet most people who tell you they "stretch" are not telling the truth. Same with food intake.

I don't think stretching is the problem, is overexerting muscles without properly bringing them to the level where they can handle it. Case in point my dad decided to go all ham on the leg machines one night and he had trouble walking for a couple months. You have to ease into that that shit.

While it is important to not over exert yourself, I was not in any way, just moving shit I normally do, with a slight twist of doing it a little more than I normally would.
Even if you over exert, careful stretching can save you

@curiousthinkerunderground @FailurePersonified I think its quite clear that flexible and strong muscles give the most strength.

Juries out on stretching. I know some athletic people that don't do it and they seem fine. I do a little stretching myself but not everyday, only when my body is telling me to do it.
