Stretching with 5x5

Introspective

Does anyone do any kind of stretching whilst on 5x5 ? I am currently doing a single factor routine (mon wed fri) and was thinking about doing some pilates on tuesday and thursday, is this a good idea ?
Thanks in advance.
 
Other than making you gay, pilates could be a good idea. ;) I stretch every time I'm in the gym. I skip rope and then stretch for 10-15 minutes. Then I get to business and, yes, I'm using the 5X5
 
Pilates???:eek: LOL at Griz! Dude I don't think you need to stretch more than required by the range of movement for the exercise. For instance, the full squat... without weight you should be able to bottom your hammies on your calves. I usually just do a couple of warm-up sets with light weight and use the full range of movement. Then hit it with working weight.
