Title: Is Stretching needed for Hypertrophy?
Post by: Thong Maniac on March 25, 2015, 08:34:50 PM: I remember when that Dante Doggcrapp shit was all the rage and his stretching protocol

I noticed ive neglected stretching and feel tight all over. Not been making killer gains either. Is flexibility and stretching the answer?

Some big benchers are so tight they can barely use their arms athletically. When you have a very tight limited range of motion you are subject to tears once that range of motion is exceeded.

I agree rich. A greater range of motion is better.

According to VB the only thing that matters for hypertrophy is DOMS.
