Can you share the source? This seems dangerously wrong.
I see a specific review making the very narrow claim that it can have detrimental effects on power/strength activities immediately following static stretching.
But by and large I'm finding a great deal of evidence for a wide range of other benefits, particularly in range of motion and injury prevention. I can't find anything widely damning, and I certainly don't see any reviews contesting the validity of the very vast body of research supporting the many benefits of static stretching.
