Is there such a thing as too much stretching?

[Juice Freak]

I was wondering what everyone's thoughts are on stretching the way Dogcrapp advocates for his routine but stretching that way for every bodypart two, three times a day, everyday? Would this affecct the recovery time of the muscles that were worked out or would it continue to free up fascia adhesions at the joints and in return create bigger muscle bellies? I do not know the exact mechanism of stretchs on muscle fibers but I do know that stretching releases test,growth hormone and IGF=1 in small amounts. So what are your thoughts?

More stetching is more muscles?

More stretching kills recovery?

I don't believe that there are any negatives to stretching, quite the opposite.
Besides, stretching makes you sure that yu are not one of those guys that can even put the seatbelt on in the car never mind doing anything else that is considered normal.

I've always tried to include some type of stretching in my workouts. Here's an interesting thread I captured and put in the Articles Forum http://www.professionalmuscle.com/forums/showthread.php?p=68680#post68680
