DON’T NEGLECT YOUR MOBILITY - Mobility is important to do consistently because it directly impacts joint health, flexibility, and overall movement efficiency, all of which are essential for both athletic performance and everyday activities. Research shows that consistent mobility training improves range of motion and reduces the risk of injuries by ensuring that muscles and joints can move through their full, functional range without restriction. For example, a study published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research found that athletes with better hip and shoulder mobility had significantly lower injury rates. Regular mobility work also helps prevent muscular imbalances and compensatory movement patterns, which are common causes of chronic pain and joint stress. Additionally, as we age, mobility naturally declines, but consistent mobility exercises can slow this process and help maintain independence and quality of life.
