Stretching feels good. Stretching is a way to relieve tension and stress. Stretching is a way to safely explore new ranges of motion.
As with anything, you need to start where you can and slowly, progressively add resistance, weight, range of motion, and speed (if these are goals).

I agree wholeheartedly. It seems that camps have gotten really dogmatic about stretching. Stretching is also good as an anatomy lesson or sorts. I can often only tell which muscles are most affected by a certain exercise when I stretch a day or so later. This is especially true in my upper back and helps me avoid overtraining.
Definately is great proprioception work too. Thank you.
