Stretching boosts range of motion and performance
Dear Dr Donohue explains stretching increases joint motion and reduces injury risk while aiding powerful muscle contractions. He favors proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation and outlines a method of mild discomfort, contract, relax, then repeat for deeper gains. He notes static holds after a brief contraction.

DR. Donohue
Becker's Bridge West dealer. Neither side vulnerable.
North holds 108762 11093 A8 bAKQ. The bidding and distribution imply sales and contract play in a bridge hand, with defensive and declarer considerations to determine the optimal contract and card play.
Fancy Footwork in Spades Bridge Problem Unfolds
A bridge puzzle from King Features Syndicate explains a four hearts contract after a spade lead. West holds A K Q J 9 of spades, East discards 7 5 diamonds, and East shows out on the A K of trumps. The solution relies on deducing West started with the A K Q J 9 of spades and thus lacks the king of diamonds. By discarding the ace of diamonds from dummy and executing a sequence of trumps and club plays, the declarer secures two extra tricks and reaches the ten tricks.
