If the stretch is too strong than you're muscles are going to try to resist it and that will just put strain on the injured area. Of course your muscle are always going to resist a stretch to some extent but the point it you have to be able to control it based on the level of discomfort. The key is gentle stretching with no pain in the case of injuries.

lol.....people worry too much about "blood flowing". sometimes its even mistaken for a pump. thats when they do 3 warm up sets all to failure. and then they do their work sets
