do you stretch?

Once a week or so I'll go in my room and literally stretch for about 20 min. All kind of different angles and movements. I feel so good after. Just need to do it more often. I find deep tissue massages also help tremendously (if you have knots like I do in my back) in helping with stretching and range of motion. Blood flow on workouts with pumps, etc. it's a MUST in this game.

Everyday otherwise I would be immobile and definitely unable to lift due to injuries and whatnot. I stretch for about 45 mins during warmup and same during cooldown.
 
No stretching unless I'm getting out of bed lol .
Before workouts I always warm up my rotator , shoulders , and knees before leg day , that is all !!!
 
I do after a run but I should actually stretch after every workout because I have ITBS ...
 
I have to stretch for legs, not upper body tho. 42 yo.

Stretching is a must for my. I used to cramp up on the toilet wiping my @$$ lol. Couldn't pin glutes either it was horrible. Now I stretch 5x week and my mobility id much better. Still can reach certain spots but fukkit I'm not pulling muscles and in pain doing basic stuff anymore. I also incorporate them into certain lifts like shrugs, deep pull up's, stiff legged deads, etc... my girls a bb'r and goes to a professional for it. One hour of ass kicking stretching and fascia manipulation. Worth it she says, I dunno I just get regular sport massages here and there and do extended sauna sessions to help me out.
