This is an introductory mobility session to get you comfortable with adding in these types of 12 movements into your weekly strength and conditioning program. Flexibility and mobility are often used interchangeably, but they refer to distinct physical attributes. Flexibility is the ability of a muscle or muscle group to passively stretch through a range of motion, such as touching your toes or doing the splits. It primarily depends on muscle length and elasticity. Mobility, on the other hand, is the ability of a joint to move actively through its full range of motion with control, incorporating flexibility, strength, and coordination. While flexibility is a component of mobility, having flexible muscles doesn’t necessarily mean a person has good mobility, as mobility also requires joint stability and neuromuscular control. Try adding mobility every other day as a first step and if more time is required, you can progress to doing 5-15 minutes of daily mobility work. Stay Strong Together, MICHAEL WOOD, CSCS Jefit
