Static stretching is ok to do before a work out but it decreases performance because ur muscles will be too relaxed so do dynamic stretching first and then at the end of the workout, do static stretching

[@JesterSantos]

Can U differentiate the two?

Mark so i got tryouts and i just did these stretches and now i dont feel like movin gn

Static stretching is basically doing stretches that don’t involve a lot of movement dynamic is the opposite

[@yungnickyyp6791]

Jazz cheese I can help. Basketball shoes are important they provide ankle support, heel lockdown, cushion, breath ability, good court traction, and many more benefits. A runner is fine I guess for very very light basketball playing but if your serious you should invest in a pair of basketball shoes. Runners don’t have the same traction needed for cuts and explosiveness. They also have little to no ankle support and no heel lockdown and most don’t have any up cushion. It’s not safe to hoop in a runner trust me.

From muscles expanding and contracting during your regular day it’s important to keep a constant stretching routine to keep your muscles healthy. Also it’s good to stretch if your body is not at all warmed up.
