Both I believe the result of overdoing it. So I'm doing everything I can to try and prevent a repeat of that, both pacing myself in terms of getting the program going again and stretching for the first time. Mainly because I'm old and want to maintain my flexibility, but partly just to try it, because I never have before.

My new stretching regimen involves a single 30-second stretch for each or a dozen or so muscle groups, so that would actually match the findings outlined in your link.

Sweet! Good luck to you! Injury bugs are a real bitch.
