Episode notes
Mobility Unlocks Movement Freedom
- Mobility frees movement like removing clothes that are too tight, allowing strength, coordination and athleticism to show.
- Appropriate mobility unlocks daily comfort and performance beyond aesthetics.
Progressive Overload For Flexibility
- Use progressive overload for flexibility: apply sets, reps and added load to mobility drills like strength training.
- Make stretches hard enough to induce adaptation and plan progressive increases over time.
Frequency And Recovery For Mobility
- Train mobility 2–3 times weekly with structured sessions and rest for recovery when sore.
- Newcomers can do daily low‑intensity mobility to build tolerance and avoid injuries.
