Whatever the "science" says at the moment, I believe in yoga and regular stretching. Have practiced for decades. Probably just a placebo effect. YMMV.
I've never stretched or done yoga in over 50 years of training on the bike. Never suffered for lack of stretching. The placebo effect on me has been powerful.
And the coffee bad/coffee good, etc., thing---I've been told that that's how science works.
