in the T-Nation's 2005 archive (button on archive, select 2005) the article "Top 10 Post-Workout Nutrition Myths" by David J. Barr caught my eye. i read it, and had to keep reading through all the posts.
looks great. i personally felt that my protein needs were increased and digestion time speeded up for at least a day. it is nice to see an article that allows for less than the fastest, most high-tech supplements in the industry for me to feel like i'm not a failure.
Jan Galen Bishop's "Fitness Through Aerobics" has some pictures of common and "established" exercises/stretches that are actually dangerous to perform! Would love to see a discussion of Warm-Up/Cool-Down Myths in general.

wow. that's great. do you have a link to any pictures?
not the same as what this post was about. -- "The brightly shining mind is never absent but is colored by the thoughts and emotions that people put upon it. If you were to see the luminous freedom of this mind, you would cultivate it before any other, keeping it free from all attachments."

Unfortunately, no, and neither does amazon.com! But I do recall seeing mainstays like the bridge (arching the back) and the side stretch, as well as the stuff we now know to be bad like the duck walk and sit-ups, prohibited.
Looks like a textbook for Recreation majors in college, though...like $30-40!!

Ah, I figured it was close enough, having to do with fitness and well-being in general. =) I was just reminded of it, and you know how easy it is to just hit "send"....

yeah. it is a great topic for a place like this. "banned exercises/stretches".
so now aggressive warm-ups (from being cold) are prohibited. but we can warm up for the pre-workout stretch, right? by walking, jogging 'n stuff. -- "... the street term for it would be 'Byxmyndig' *legal to get in pants* (it's true)" - Dukeman, in AGHL

Don't forget the report earlier this year that pre-workout stretches have not been found to decrease the chance of injury (!), and the report just last week that annual check-ups have not been helpful (!).

Pfff...that's easy. Try living with all kinds of injuries.
