WHAT IS MOBILITY TRAINING?
Mobility training is joint training.
We use it to develop control, build strength and increase range of motion within your joints, so they stay healthy and move the way they were meant to.
Just like strength training builds muscle and conditioning strengthens the cardiovascular system, mobility training strengthens the joints.
Everything starts and ends at your joints.
When your joints work their best, pain and injury goes away, sports performance improves and future injury is mitigated.
This is the piece to the injury and performance puzzle few are exploring.
