By using static and dynamic exercises you reduced the time of recovery. Imagine not having stretched at all.
Your range of motion has increased. You are stronger now than you were before you were injured.
By having a better posture and better range of motion you are less likely to be injured again.
You are wrong. I increased my flexibility, which allowed me to have correct posture. I didn't recover from anything - there was no "injury" to recover from, and no soreness to recover from. There was only an occurence of pain as a direct result of maintaing poor posture for long periods of time, and fixing the posture nearly immediately fixed the pain.
You are flagrantly retarded if you believe stretching causes an increase in strength. I can understand why you're arguing some things, but that claim is just LOLOLOL
And yes, by having better posture and better range of motion, I am less likely to become injured. Having enough flexibility to move with correct form prevents injury. However, if you already have enough flexibility to perform movements with correct form, then there is no need to stretch, as stretching itself does not prevent injury. For pretty much all sports, its a bad idea to do static stretching before competing. Static stretching is only good for addressing a specific inflexibility that inhibits correct form for your sport-specific movements.

I take walks, i do exercise 5-10 min every morning and night, I train 3 - 4 times a week, I always get up a lot, and stuff when sitting. Not fat, but get a lot of pain in my lower back. Anyone know if you can uhm, do something magical and make it go away lol?
Go see and doctor and/or physical therapist, you'll only get a bunch of wacked out advice here

You are wrongRIGHT. I increased my flexibility, which allowed me to have correct posture. I didn't recover from anything - there was no "injury" to recover from, and no soreness to recover from. I recovered from a back problem that caused pain. There was only an occurence of pain as a direct result of maintaing poor posture for long periods of time, and fixing the posture nearly immediately fixed the pain. Spine and other bones are connected to muscles, the culprits responsible for problems in my lumbar region. Thank god i know DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) comes from exercising too much and no amount of post-exercise stretching will save me from being a dumbass in the first place.

However, if you already have enough flexibility to perform movements with correct form, then there is no need to stretch, as stretching itself does not prevent injury. You were correct again and i am grasping at straws. I dodge the question about recovering from back problems (time) because my friends haven't done much research on the subject so i decide to use cloak and dagger.
You are flagrantly retardedwell informed if you believe stretching CAN causes an increase in strength because i suspect that by increasing our muscle length we are increasing the distance over which our muscles are able to contract. This results in a potential increase to our muscles power and therefore increases our athletic ability, while also leading to an improvement in dynamic balance, or the ability to control our muscles. I can understand why you're arguing some things, but that claim is just LOLOLOL For every muscle in the body there is an opposite or opposing muscle, (the antagonist). If the opposing muscles are more flexible, the working muscles do not have to exert as much force against the opposing muscles. Therefore each movement of the working muscles actually takes less effort. Also some of the dynamic stretch exercises get the small muscles you never thought you even had.
Now let me show everyone how smart i am. For pretty much all sports, its a bad idea to do static stretching before competing. WHAM ! I feel really smart even though nobody has argued the point. Static stretching is only good for addressing a specific inflexibility that inhibits correct form for your sport-specific movements and stretching is really important to maintaining flexibility!! I've also found out that there indeed are two types of stretching staticand dynamic Static stretches include static stretching, passive stretching, active stretching, PNF stretching and isometric stretching. Dynamic stretching is mostly ballistic, dynamic and active isolated stretching.

"Stretching elongates your muscles, tendons and ligaments making them stronger."
This is word for word what i said. He just wanted to be smart but it came out all wrong.

Hey, doc told me I'm super tense all the time, cuz im awesome (didn't say the last part). Seems like I can't relax the muscles even if I try real hard, so got told to youtube some stretching for lower back.
Since when you stretch them they get more relaxed afterwards, other than that a lot of tips to unwind and unstress lal.
Doctor youtubed with me, and I remember this one:
For lower back, that's bout it, I don't remember much more, since she was kinda hot and I was a little flustered, after she'd been grabbing me all over. (Ok, only poked my stomach and back a bit).
So yeah!!

Doctor says a lot of things and then shows you videos with specific stretches you should do, that you can access from home easily in case you forget them.
Not a quality post Funktion... not a quality post at all.

For people who do yoga, do you just go to those free classes at your local gym or go to a private instructor/class? I'd like to go to fix a back problem and just increase flexibility.
Either way, how do you go about not looking like a creeper? I've briefly looked at the yoga classes going on at my gym, and I have yet to spot a guy.

I don't think going to a yoga class makes you look like a creeper, i'd just do it. Just find a yoga studio nearby. Unless you live in a college town, its 90% old ladies, usually very few hot chicks, and they won't think you're a creep.

i'm no expert but have used a lot of rodney yee's dvds. back care yoga is fantastic. am pm yoga. yoga for beginners. yoga for athletes.
has anyone on this forum gone to a yoga class at a local gym? I would love to hear a trip report from someone on the other side.
Anytime I see a guy in one of those classes by himself it just screams out un-redeemable loser and/or creeper. They would have to end up being gay, a winning winner who just doesn't give a fuck and wanted to do some yoga (may or may not be high as fuck and/or tripping on acid), or a winning winner who is banging every chick in the class for that behavior to be redeemable. (i realize this last paragraph probably drastically reduces the chances of getting a trip report but it's kind of a "i could be being an asshole/prove me wrong" situation).
