Mobility Monday 🚀
Flexibility ≠Mobility!
- Flexibility = how far you can move.
- Mobility = how strong you are through that movement. 🏋️‍♀️
A couple of weeks ago, I shared one of my favorite recovery tools: dynamic mobility Today we’re putting it to the test with this 🔥 challenge with @littletfitness!
When I first saw this barbell squat sit-to-good morning hip hinge-to stand challenge, it looked simple… but it quickly exposed the truism that simple is not always easy - and I immediately saw where the real work lies (for me): 👀
• ankle mobility at the bottom of the squat • hip strength through the seated hinge
👉 It’s easy (or easier) to be flexible without load
👉 True mobility shows up when you can move with control and strength through your full ROM.
Mobility isn’t optional — it’s what makes us stronger, safer, and better at everything we do. 💥 Flexibility matters too, but it’s often misunderstood. You’re not just “flexible” or “inflexible” overall — flexibility is joint-specific. You might have great ankle mobility but tight hips, for example — and that imbalance matters.

And of course… if you want a program that builds mobility right in, not just expects you to work around it…
