Champion ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() notarunnr - 2008-04-02 9:09 AM x2...Tracy could you be more specific?...now I am confused! not sure I will switch what I am doing. I could barely walk in November due to knee issues and since I have been good about stretching before and after my runs....I feel fabulous...even after yesterdays HE double L run in the hills my legs are not sore AT ALL...am I not supposed to be stretching before??? but only after?!? owl_girl - 2008-04-02 11:59 AM Girl Passing on Left - 2008-04-01 5:53 PM notarunnr - 2008-04-01 1:59 PM aliclimb - 2008-03-31 7:44 PM I suppose I better introduce myself too. I'm currently a physical therapy student switching careers from research science. I did a few Danskin women's triathlons when I was in grad school in Colorado and had a blast. Since moving back to Nebraska, I had to find something to do since climbing and skiing were not as accessible, so I got back into tri last summer. Last year I completed one sprint and did the bike leg on a team that included lastcall2003. This year I'd like to do both those triathlons, along with a marathon (or two, I'll find out about the 2nd tomorrow). I squeeze most of my training in around classes, which isn't too bad. I'm having more of a problem getting in the swimming and riding along with the marathon training....thus the incentive to join the challenge! Oh, and I'm amazed at all the moms on our team! I just barely keep up with a dog and a cat. Wow isn't it cool to have a physical therapist on the team....Just think of all the questions we can get answered...like do I really have to stretch before I run? don't have to be a physical therapist for that answer...just have to be old and decrepid like me...and the answer is YES...STRETCH...STRETCH...STRETCH...this is something that I learned in all the sports that i have played in...not only do you want to stretch before but after...this will help you to avoid those pulled muscles, injuries and will actually help to tone! In fact I need to go stretch now...I just went up to hills near my house and did a long and hilly 6 mile single track run...lots of rocks, ruts, and roots from all the trees that were around...at first I wasn't sure if I should have been running in my tennis shoes or my hiking boots! but glad I was in my tennis shoes.....my dog went with me and she was way behind me on the way back...we are both going to sleep like a puppy! Alli---You stretch before you run AFTER you warm up those muscles first. Right????? Which came first the chicken or the egg? I gave up stretching before I run I was getting some serious pain that was attributed to the stretching, but my runs start out slow, so I think it takes me longer to warm them up. I do stretch afterwards. So if you shouldn't stretch until you are warmed up, how do you warm up to stretch? Me so confused on this whole thing! |

I DO FOR THE POOL! someone PUSH ME IN!!!! ![]() ![]()
I found mine.....it was gone and it pisses me off when it goes away. I think I have some extra I can give to you, I felt great in the pool this morning. Maybe it is the frigid cold temp of the water...or maybe it decided the cruel trick was up. Julie, get thee to a pool! I gotta get you one of those swimpods, you can listen to Jerry while you swim back and forth, back and forth, back and forth...... did you say swim pods? they make them? what closet have I been in...or maybe I don't know because I HAVE NOT BEEN AT THE POOL to see them!?! |

I have always instructed my clients to do exactly what you are doing, Tammy. Start out slow to get the HR up, warm the muscles, and get your head in the game. Stretch after your workout. I'd sure love to get the Physical Therapy student to tell us what is best. She is so lucky to get the most up to date info on this subject! ![]() ![]() |

SwiMP3, there are others. My son has one....I have never used it, nor has he except to goof around with. Not sure how well they work. I would love to swim with one, but my hearing is already bad...don't need to make it worse. Slow is best for your swim....just work on your form. Don't worry about speed yet, when you want speed just pick up one of those new speedo suits. |

I damaged my IT band(hip end) at the end of last season, and my PT had me doing a whole set of stretches before I ran....everything started getting worse. One day when I didn't have enough time to stretch i just went and ran, and then the next time I just didn't want to stretch before I ran....and lo and behold my pain decreased. My PT wasn't happy, but I don't go to her anymore |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Will weigh in on the stretching thing later...have to go to a ballgame. I have kepty up with most of that dealing with pitchers and the likes....but as noted above...the info is pretty inconclusive...another one to toss around...Icing. most NEW research shows that icing after an event is not good for you.
will jump back in the discussion later.
