A member asked:
Are there any stretches i should do before jogging to prevent foot/leg injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A recent article: In the ny times revealed dynamic stretching to be better than static for pre excercise stretching. So, jumping jacks, or little jogs in place were dynamic. Stretching aft excercise seems to be more important.
