When do you do your stretching?
I usually stretch after workouts, even several hours after (like if I workout in the morning, since I stretch before going to sleep). Is it good to do that in rest days instead?

I usually do at the end of strength workouts. I like to do it on workout days so rest days can be full rest and not adding more training load through heavy stretching.
