Name
The name of the settlement was changed from Draga to Draga pri Sinjem Vrhu (literally, 'Draga near Sinji Vrh') in 1955.[3] The name Draga is derived from the Slovene common noun draga 'small, narrow valley', referring to the geographical location of the settlement.[4]
gollark: I see.
gollark: I found the thing I read in my browser history (https://www.painscience.com/articles/stretching.php), and it says that stretching hasn't been found to reduce injury risk, and might just make the brain happier with using more range of motion without actually changing the muscles.
gollark: Does it actually do that?
gollark: You do get more flexibility but that doesn't seem very useful in most circumstances unless you're lacking it a lot.
gollark: Is it? I think I read that stretching actually reduces performance if you do it before sport things.
