Zlappy is mistaken. Check stress is the phase that occurs after moving, when you check for a red maneuvor or green to add/remove stress. This adds a stress between the Check Stess Phase and the Clean up phase (where you remove the template and dials). Then is the action phase. Since you are stressed from Lightning reflexes at this point, you cannot take actions.

The implication of gaining the stress AFTER the Check Stress Phase, is that you cannot clear the stress it grants by using in combination with a green maneuvor. If you receved the stress before the Check Stress Phase, you would be able to use a Green, discard lightning reflexes, gain a stress, check stress and remove the token, and take an action. This particular wording prevents that.
