Ok, so what's new. What is something or anything we did not know about training and nutrition in 2007, that we now know is important or of value in 2008?

As far as I know - stretching is last year's news - only good for 2nd place or special rehab cases.

Possible, too much Mercury is HFCS - that could accumulate is lard-ass children..... but then again who could tell - they're brain damaged already.

OK so what else?

The articles I read about stretching suggested that old school static stretching (reach and hold) is no good whereas dynamic stretching (active movements while reaching) is much better for after warmup/before exercise.

I still stretch after exercise/during recovery though. Feels good to me.
