MOBILITY vs FLEXIBILITY: I talk a lot about mobil

MOBILITY vs FLEXIBILITY:

I talk a lot about mobility on here (Mobility Mondays) Because I think it is so important and overlooked. However, I have gotten the question as to what the difference between mobility and flexibility is. Here ya go!

Also, remember that both are extremely important. I just focus more on mobility since most people already stretch and know the benefits of it!

🔑 The difference between these two terms might be small, but pretty important.
.

🤸🏽‍♂️Flexibility= the ability for a tissue to stretch aka extensibility.

🤾🏻‍♂️Mobility= the ability to ACTIVELY or passively achieve a range of motion.

👀More simply put:

Flexibility is your PASSIVE range of motion

Mobility is your ACTIVE range of motion

How do you know what you need?

🧷If you have enough range of motion for you to do every day things and your quality of life is awesome, maybe all you need to do is move your joints daily to keep what you have.

🧷If you lack the passive range of motion to do specific tasks, you may need to increase your flexibility.

Remember, stretching for hours on end won’t cause physical changes in your muscle, just neural changes 🤭 so after you “stretch” and gain more range, you want to follow it up with some ACTIVE mobility work.

That is why it is so important to do both. Stretch it and then reinforce with active mobility

🧷If you have the range of motion but lack the control of this range of motion, you might need more ACTIVE mobility work in that specific range of motion. This is where you reinforce the movement patterns.

🚨Tag someone who needs to know this difference!

Warming up doesn't have to be complicated!!

Just get moving and get your blood moving in your legs.

If your hips feel tight focus more on moving those in different directions. Same with the calves, work on getting your heels up and moving those calves more!
