This is what I’ve always known to be true and works best for myself as well. One thing that I am trying to find clarification on (and if you don’t have the answer it’s no worry) is the time between static stretching and your next workout. Let’s say there is three hours between my next jiu jitsu practice, but my legs are very sore and I get the best stretch relief doing static stretching. Is that too soon to stretch before my next practice? I’ve always been told that static stretching before performance can lead to injury but I’m not sure about how much time “before” that would be… if anyone has input, it would be GREATLY appreciated!!
This is the most concise video on the two types of stretching that have come across. Thank you so much. You really explained it just perfectly along with actually physically demonstrating. This is so valuable!!
Anecdotally, I was taught static stretching many years ago and it never made me more flexible! It just hurt. Learning about dynamic stretching helped, but what most helped my hamstrings and hips loosen was my own little combination. Hold for 3 seconds, a couple of dynamic movements, hold for 5, whatever. I can touch past my toes now to the balls of my feet! And I'm old, too, 40+, a time when I'm supposed to be losing range of motion.
I agree with you. Both are good. No reason to not do both. Holding allows us to get past the Stretch Reflex. Dynamic stretching allows us to involve other muscles.
@@ChairYogaForTheAgeless Yeah most of my stretching early years was static and helped me with flexibility and reducing injuries from jogging. Both are good. Always trends and people swear the newest trend is best until it changes to the next one.
I’d love to see an in depth video on the benefits of loaded stretching and the most effective loaded stretches for the main muscle groups. And also the most effective ways to build tendon strength. Thanks for all the great content.
Thank you for great video. I lost faith in static stretching long time ago. So, I stopped doing stretching all together. I usually just warm up with light cardio. I guess I could add some dynamic stretching as my warm up. Thank you for great educative video!
Your videos using the latest scientific studies are the bomb! Would love to see a sample dynamic upper body warm up example. Better still, a video on a general whole-body warm-up routine. Thank you !!
I would say with the static stretching you're prepping your body for rest and recovery vs dynamic you're prepping your body for activity which only makes sense when you look at any of the stretches.
Very well put together video, I was always confused between the two and didn’t know the difference, good to know at least front the get go I’ve been doing it right 😁
I was the kinds of video which would tell me about static and dynamic flexibility, finally i have got .thank-you 😊 nobody in the youtube and in my class has taught like this .
This in my opinion is a little misleading. The studies compare static stretching alone vs dynamic stretching alone. No thorough warm would only involve one of these. I have seen people pull a muscle going straight into dynamic stretches. The order should be, steady exercise for a few minutes to raise your body temperature, then some static exercises, then the dynamic stretches. In other words a combination of the two. Very recent studies [since this video was released] have changed their mind on the benefits of static stretches [they like them more]. Having trained very hard for 35 years in professional sport, I would never omit static stretching, but absolutely also do dynamic stretching/exercises specific to the exercises you are about to perform.
Static stretching holds poses to lengthen muscles and increase flexibility post-exercise, while dynamic stretching involves moving joints through a range of motion to prep muscles for activity pre-exercise.
A lot depends on what you're stretching. If you're static stretching the quads before sprints or jumps, that's probably a bad idea and will penalize performance. If you're stretching the splits because you're in kickboxing or ballet, that's not going to hurt vertical jumps because it doesn't involve the primary muscles needed for the jump but you get the benefit of improved range of motion.
Love this video! Very informative!! Would you be able do a few videos of dynamic stretching routines? Im looking for a few videos that I can rotate every couple weeks. I’m working on mobility and dynamic stretching was recommended and to change up the routine every 2 weeks.
I remember in the early to mid 00s dynamic stretching was viewed as some horrible thing in the fitness industry. I even remember reading Jillian Michael's workout book and she said how we shouldn't "pump" a stretch. We have to hold it for as long as we can take it and we should even push through the pain! Her methods have been questionable since she was on the Biggest Loser. Now, almost 20 years later, dymanic stretching has backed up evidence that it helps better with performance. I'm glad there's more and more information coming out!
@0:35 I'd argue and say the more notable and the only 4 ways of stretching is: Active dynamic or static and passive dynamic or static ;) But of course another great post guys, thanks. Keep up the good work
I used to get muscle pulls all the time when I sprinted until I started static stretching, but I do it consistently while relaxing at home, not before a workout. I do static stretching before workouts. I feel it's the best of both worlds.
Strongly disagree. The fact that this gent is so extremely stiff himself suggests that he's never taken stretching very seriously. Yes - dynamic stretching or very light static stretching is best for pre-performance warmup. But it won't do much to improve the underlying range of motion for stiff people. Dynamic stretching only helps you access what you have already - not to accumulate new ranges of motion. If you want to seriously improve your range of motion you need to research Isometric Static Stretching, also known as Resistance Stretching. This combines isometrics and static stretching to ensure that you develop strength and control at the extremes of range of motion, while the resistance allows you to to push safely into new areas of motion. The results are safe and quick and validated by research - and far superior to anything else I've tried.
For me loaded dynamic is where its at 1000% maybe with a 2-3 second hold at end range where it you feel the stretch but there is no pain. This works basically for my whole hip and posterior chain which was causing too much stiffness. The gains are otherwordly. Static only feels painful to me.
Very instructive video. Do you have any recommandation regarding Stretching after workout ? would it be benificial for recovery and how long after the workout would be the best, right after, one day ? thanks ;)
What about long-term improvement in mobility? Is there any difference between static and dynamic there? Seems like the studies cited were all looking at flexibility immediately after the stretch.
would you say dynamic stretching is better done before further warumps(e.g. jumping jacks, high knee jumps etc.) if i warm up to play basketball, or should i do the "non stretching" warmups first?
what about for flexibility? I found it hard to believe that dynamic stretching is as good at increasing flexibility. I'd ofc believe it with good studies.
Hi! I have costochondritis and my intercostals often feel sore. I was told my fascia throughout my anterior is tight. I drink lots of water. What are good stretches for my rib muscles and scalenes?
Is dynamic stretching recommended for resistance training injuries joint/ligaments or static stretching? As well as a ball/foam rolling and icing/bath in forms of therapy?
I recall reading years ago that the loss in performance caused by static stretching is gone after the 40 minute mark. So then static stretch well before the workout.
how about a no stretching as a control? I've been playing sports my whole live (no so much now because of work), but I've been known to skip all stretchs... other than maybe one "squat"movement
Hey! I wonder what about after 1hr of (not that exhausting) weightlifting... i am doing static one hour or 2 after working out (30sec, 3times each muscle)... I wanna avoid muscle fatigue (i am doing perfect now, but i wanna be more precise)! I cant find much about post-work streching, just before ! Thanks !
Thank you so much for watching! Let us know what other topics you want us to cover!

“I’m old too, 40+” ….. Don’t mind me. I’m gonna go cry now.
You need yoga to get flexible not just random stretches

Do we do static stretches immediately after workout or take some rest first??
This is the best video regarding this topic out there BY FAR. Thank you very much.
Thank you!
Finally, a fitness video where the instructor speaks slow! 👍
Thank you for great video. I lost faith in static stretching long time ago. So, I stopped doing stretching all together. I usually just warm up with light cardio. I guess I could add some dynamic stretching as my warm up. Thank you for great educative video!
We're learning these at school and this helped me understand their difference and which is better. Thanksss

Yo facts bro facts
Very informative 👍
We needed more upper body dynamic stretches as well ! 😩
Great video 👍 very clear and easy to understand
I love this vídeo thanks 💪✌️
Please could u guys please do a easy workout routine for people who have weak joints
I used to get muscle pulls all the time when I sprinted until I started static stretching, but I do it consistently while relaxing at home, not before a workout. I do static stretching before workouts. I feel it's the best of both worlds.
Thanks you guys, you do it awesome, it's totally helpful, you're great.
dynamic is meant for pre workout to get your muscles flowing and active before a workout
Could you guys do a dynamic streching workout it would be really helpful
Thanks. Grate explanation.
Thanks for this video! This one is really helpful
Please, do a video on Knee Valgus and rehab. Thank You
Thank you for the information

Thank you for the video
warmup’s looking like workouts…
Please make a video on Ballistic and PNF stretching also.
Thanks for sharing
before bedtime, i like to spend 5-10 mins stretching. which one is more beneficial? i assume static stretching?
Well done 👍
Thank you.

So before basketball session would mean dynamic stretching, and after is static stretch ? How many time should we stretch per day
Thankyou so much sir
5:42 dynamic routine
thank you!
Hi doc, would you tell me please,how can l get side split and middle split,tnx
I have been working out for so long and static stretching never weakened my performance. I have a very lean, toned and curvy body
would you say dynamic stretching is better done before further warumps(e.g. jumping jacks, high knee jumps etc.) if i warm up to play basketball, or should i do the "non stretching" warmups first?

Does it has Any Long term effect one is very tight in lower body ?
Hi. When is it best to perform dynamic and static stretching? Is it best to perform dynamic prior to exercises, and static after exercises? TIA.
You do dynamic stretching before a workout and when you finish you do static stretching
Is dynamic stretching recommended for resistance training injuries joint/ligaments or static stretching? As well as a ball/foam rolling and icing/bath in forms of therapy?
I try increase range..i train to get split since two years ...is that correct ?
I recall reading years ago that the loss in performance caused by static stretching is gone after the 40 minute mark. So then static stretch well before the workout.
Hope... Yes, that was years ago. We have more accurate information now, hence, this video.
Or just dynamic stretch ✌️✌️
suggested video link about stretching science doesn't work
Dynamic stretching strikes me as basically being calisthenics
You guys should do a video on low load long duration stretching.
what about after working out? dynamic or static or none at all?
Static is best after a workout according to vertical jump trainers. Stretch right after while your still pumped up.
how about a no stretching as a control? I've been playing sports my whole live (no so much now because of work), but I've been known to skip all stretchs... other than maybe one "squat"movement
static stretched doesn’t help those workouts because static stretching is meant to release tension on the muscles post workout.
wow nice video!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Doctor
Can I do a static stretching after doing an upper body and lower body workout?
Low key just use dynamic stretching and use static holds for 3-10 secs

The article is from 2009 - not 2019... :-)
