Stretching is a key part to prepare yourself for athletic participation. Something as simple as running can still cause injury and taking the precautions to prevent injury is very important.
Stretches differ from activity to activity. If you are going to throw a baseball, you will want to concentrate on stretching the upper body. If you are kicking a field goal, you will want to concentrate on the legs. You also must perform the stretches well. A stretch that is over looked can be a target for injury. Stretching is not a 100% effective tool, but it does prepare your body for the exertion of energy it is about to sustain. It should be done before and after every physical activity done.
