S.2 Ep.19 - Mobility v Stretching
Science News: Strength Training Burns fat! (Duh!), and want better, deeper sleep? Train later in the evening at high intensity.
Stretching v Mobility
Stretching: Improves flexibility of the muscle
You don't get longer muscles
Increase Stretch tolerance of muscles
Works by allowing the stretch reflex (golgi tendon organ) to allow to reach a bigger range of motion.
Types of stretch: Static, Active, Passive, Ballistic, Dynamic
Dangers: Pushing the joint past it’s normal range of motion can lead to damage to the joint and connective tissue - tendons and ligaments.
Mobility: definition is the ability to achieve extended ranges of motion - flexibility and strength through the full range of motion.
Good mobility:
Reduce risk of injury
Greater movement
Improved performance - training or sports
Joint health and longevity
To improve mobility: Complete exercises which use the full range of motion - full squats, hinge in deadlift etc. Full range push and pull movements - presses and pull downs etc. Yoga is great for mobility as it’s strength of holding positions, as well as flexibility of muscles
