I am honestly not sure what the "right" answer is, as I've heard both stories: stretching with "cold" muscles (before the warm-up) can cause more soreness, strains and even injury. I've also heard that stretching in the exact way you will be using the muscles during the upcoming workout (perhaps during the warm-up?) helps to loosen and "prepare" muscles for the specific workout, and prevent soreness after the workout.
