Mobility vs. Flexibility: What’s the Difference?
- Flexibility: Passive muscle lengthening (e.g., static stretching).
- Mobility: Active control through a joint’s full range (e.g., squatting deep with proper form).
At Feel Better ATL, our mobility programs combine dynamic stretches, strength drills, and myofascial work to help Atlanta athletes move freely and powerfully.
