Proximal to distal biomechanics is the foundation of efficient movement. This principle highlights how movements originate from the core (proximal) and transfer outward to the limbs (distal). Babies naturally follow this pattern during motor development, first...

Improving mobility takes more than just traditional stretching. Effective mobility training involves combining flexibility, strength, and motor control. Here are some proven strategies: Static Stretching: Holding a stretch for 20-30 seconds to lengthen the muscle and...

Sometimes, our muscles resist being stretched, not because they’re short, but because of reflexes and structural factors. Two common causes of limited mobility are reactive stretch resistance and intrinsic stiffness. What is Reactive Stretch Resistance? Reactive...

Flexibility and mobility are terms often used interchangeably, but they are not the same. Understanding their differences can help you train more effectively and move better in daily life and sports. Flexibility refers to the ability of a muscle to stretch passively....

Breathing is more than just taking in oxygen; it’s a key player in movement and stability. The diaphragm, transverse abdominis, and pelvic floor muscles make up your inner unit, which stabilizes the core during dynamic movements. Proper breathing also reduces tension...
