I often see people doing regular passive stretching before exercise. For years we've been told that this might not be the best method because it doesn't really warm up the muscles. Some light cardio or actually performing a lighter version of the exercise is probably better for warming up, but flexibility is good too.
Stretching improves flexibility, which allows you to move your joints through their full range of motion. But stretching with a partner can help you achieve a greater degree of flexibility.
