I just can't imagine the hardship you've been through... The site and the forum are both incredible sources of knowledge, and I'm so glad it finally got back to 'normal'. Thank you!

It does, thank you!

A question I have been asking myself recently is about the necessity to stretch after running. I know some people stretch, while others don't (some say it could do more harm than good when it comes to sore muscles). For a few months I've been using the Active Isolated Stretching method (video here) but to be honest I don't run enough to be able to say that it works for me — I run 3 km each morning from Monday to Saturday, and my legs are fine! Any thoughts? Who streches after running? Who doesn't? Thank you!

Hi, I'm Aurélien, 29, and I live in Caen, France. I started muay thai 1 year ago and instantly fall in love with it. I've always been fascinated by martial arts, even did kung fu for a couple of years and attended some MT class by accident in May 2018. 1 year and a few months later I can say that I finally found something that gives me a sense of fulfillment I never experienced before. Even if I do not intend to fight (even though I'd be more than happy if I'd ever have the opportunity), I put a good deal of effort into learning, improving and constantly challenging myself physically and mentally. Here to meet new MT friends, get some tips and contribute within my capabilities!
