Description
Flexibility is the type and range of motion you can achieve passively. Passively means that you are not under load, and you are not controlling it. For instance, if you lie on your back and someone pushes your leg up to the farthest it can go.Mobility is how much range of motion that you have actively, meaning you can use it. Flexibility and stability make mobility. You have to control the flexibility so that you can use it. So the big difference here is that flexibility is passive while mobility is active.We use the Functional Movement Screen to measure mobility. For the general population, a good dynamic warm-up and good exercise are sufficient to improve their mobility. Along with these, you have to manage their lifestyle to keep them safe and strong enough.In real life and when programming for the general population, mobility is more valuable than flexibility. You can use it in your normal day to day activities and thus improves the quality of life.Key TakeawaysCOVID gym update (01:42)What is the difference between flexibility and mobility ((08:05)Why mobility is more valuable than flexibility in real life (12:02)How we use the Functional Movement Screen to measure mobility (12:54)Taking a holistic approach towards achieving mobility (18:42)How managing lifestyle may be better for mobility than any other correctives (23:44)How to we work on mobility for our clients through in the gym (26:27)Additional Resources:www.AlloyPersonalTraining.comLearn About The Alloy Franchise Opportunity---------You can find the podcast on Apple, Google, Spotify, Stitcher, or wherever you listen to podcasts.If you haven’t already, please rate and review the podcast on Apple Podcasts!
