paley says that stretching before surgery helps mostly to adapt PT, not actually affecting lengthening success/tissue adaptation, etc.
of course if dr.paley says that i would believe but how?
i mean think like a person who can do full front splits, doesn't that mean ligaments and soft tissues stretched unusually comparing with a normal person?

From there its just your muscles, tendons and nerves ripping apart. So pre-flexibility doesnt spare you from this. That said I will absolutely be stretching beforehand because even a week or 2 increase in recovery time is better than nothing. And it will also get you used to doing it and seeing what works.
yeah i guess that's the case. i thought it would like muscle memory, if you are muscular you gain muscles back quite easily, but that's happening in the stretching.
