Stretching exercises are essentially very different from the conventional warming up exercises common with many body builders. If properly performed before the main workout, stretch exercises have been acclaimed by exercise physiologists as very helpful in relaxing the muscles and making them supple enough to handle intense weight training exercises. It is in this way that stretching exercises help prevent injuries in training.

Sometimes injuries are inevitable especially when you are training with weights. However although weight training is risky, it has many benefits.
