Dave,

That makes perfect sense. With my initial post post (as Chris picked up on) I was thinking especially of ballistic stretching (which I see a lot in Japan). Most of the people I see are "just going through the motions, I think because "it has always been that way.

I was also thinking about to some degree - "high risk" stretches (such as hurdler stretches) which I think are quite common in the "tradition MA stable of stretches. I thought it would make an interesting topic of discussion.

(it was not so much a "do you think ballistic stretches are bad thing - rather that a lot of people still do them, what do you think about that)

Cheers
