Warm ups/cool down...
How long is your warmup/cool down and what do you do for this?
I read that some guys would never stretch a cold muscle ?

My warm up and cool down is jumping a rope from 5-10 min before and after workout.

That is correct, you should not stretch a cold muscle.

I heard that too. So I also warmup with low cardio for 5-10 min and sometimes general body movements but no stretching. I leave stretching at the end of my workout.

There is always debate over whether to stretch before or after workout...all therapists I have talked to say if you're going to it once, do it after when your muscles are already shortened. Warmup should be enough to raise your body temp 1 degree and break a light sweat.
