    Body of evidence; single or multiple sets

    I've whacked this in here not because it has anything to do with powerlifting more so with just strength training as in hard workouts to improve strength , flexibility and muscle size which is a byproduct of strength but that's another topic. over the past 40 years more than 50 studies have...

    Stretching does not prevent injury, it just makes you more flexible

    To be honest I stretch because being nimble feels good, I like being flexible and I thought it reduces chance of injury. But this study appears to suggest I am incorrect on the third reason - it does not prevent injury! In fact, all stretching does is make your body used to and good at...

    Shoulder Flexibility Issue

    I need a bit of advice on trying to sort out a shoulder flexibility issue. The best way to describe it I think is if I was to place a bar on my upper back for squats, I need to hold the bar right at the very end on the bar (next to the plates) as I am unable to bring my hands in any closer. So I...
