Feel the Burn: Researchers say that stretching before exercise doesn't prevent injury:
Researcher Stephen Thacker with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said he found no benefit in stretching.
Athletes who stretch might feel more limber, but they should not count on stretching to keep them healthy, he said.
People who stretched were no more or less likely to suffer injuries such as pulled muscles -- even though people think that stretching prevents such injuries, Thacker said.
