Thank you for your question! The advice against stretching before exercise primarily refers to static stretching, where you hold a stretch for a long period. Research suggests that static stretching before intense activities can temporarily reduce muscle strength and explosiveness. Instead, dynamic stretching, which involves active movements that stretch the muscles without holding the position for too long, is recommended before exercise. This type of warm-up increases blood flow, warms up the muscles, and enhances flexibility and range of motion, preparing your body for physical activity more effectively. Static stretches are best saved for after your workout when they can help with flexibility and recovery. Hope this helps clarify things!💪

@@outdooradventuretraining Thanks for this detailed explanation. Makes sense!
If not before exercise, what should I do right before exercise? (Skiing, biking, running)
