MOBILITY vs. FLEXIBILITY 🤸♀️
.
.
☀️ Mobility = ACTIVE control of your range of motion, where your muscles are controlled intentionally by your nervous system to achieve a desired motion. YOU ARE IN FULL CONTROL OF THE MOVEMENT OR YOGA POSE.
.
.
🌔 Flexibility = PASSIVE motion. It’s just the ability of your body to reach a position while you’re relaxed, and being moved by outside forces like gravity, bands, momentum, or another person. YOU DO NOT NECESSARILY HAVE CONTROL OVER THIS MOTION.
.
.
The pose which does not allow gravity to pull you “deeper” is going to be exclusively focusing on mobility, rather than passive flexibility.
.
.
This allows us to re-think yoga poses, and instead of doing a bunch of passive static stretching, start to think of it as a MOBILITY practice where we do more end-range loading, and active movement through our full range of motion, rather than just trying to push our passive flexibility further in all poses.
