Stretching: The truth! By Dr. Doug Richards...

Hello again!!

Dr. Richards is one of the most influential professors that I encountered while going through 9 years of post-secondary education. He is a legend in the sports medicine world and a mentor to many. I use the foundational information that he presents in this lecture with my patients on a daily basis to help dispel the many myths about stretching!

Please find below his email explaining how to check out his lecture and vote! So please check out his lecture, learn something new about stretching, and vote for him!

Dear PHE and Varsity Blues alumnae and alumni,

I am writing to ask for your support in this year's TVOntario Best Lecturer contest. I am honoured to have made it to the finals. The winner among the 10 finalists will be decided by viewer voting, as well as by a panel of judges. Viewer votes are critical - I need your support to win!

In past years, finalists from smaller universities have done better, in part because their smaller communities have rallied to vote en masse for their nominees more effectively. With your help, we can show them that U of T has as much school spirit as they have at those schools!

Please help me out with your votes (you can vote as many times as you like :) )! You can even win a 50" flat-screen plasma HDTV by voting!

You can vote for me on-line through this link: www.tvo.org/TVOsites/WebObjects/TvoMicrosite.woa?bivote2009?550_321.

You can view my lecture (on stretching) on-line through this link www.tvo.org/TVO/WebObjects/TVO.woa?video?BL_Lecture_20090308_838185_DougRichards.

Note that "rating" my lecture video is not the same thing as voting in the contest - please vote, too.

Thank you so much for your support.

Doug
