00:00Hey everyone, welcome back to Mobile Physio.

00:03Today, we're clearing up a big confusion in the fitness and rehab world, mobility versus flexibility.

00:10They sound similar, but they're not the same.

00:13And knowing the difference can transform how you train and recover, let's start with flexibility.

00:19This is your muscles' ability to stretch or lengthen passively.

00:23Imagine sitting and reaching for your toes, your hamstrings are being stretched,

00:27but you're not actively moving the joint with strength.

00:30That's flexibility, now, mobility is different.

00:34It's your ability to actively move a joint through its full range of motion, with strength and control.

00:40Think of doing a deep squat, your hips, knees, and ankles are all moving well, under your control.

00:47Flexibility versus mobility examples, flexibility is about passive range.

00:52Can your muscle lengthen?

00:53Mobility is about active, functional range.

00:56Can you move that joint freely and powerfully?

00:58Benefits, flexibility is great for reducing stiffness and improving posture.

01:04Mobility is key for athletic performance, injury prevention, and everyday movement like bending, lifting, and reaching.

01:10Want the best results?

01:12Train both.

01:13Stretch for flexibility, and add mobility drills like controlled squats, hip circles, and shoulder rotations for active range.

01:22Together, they'll keep you moving better, stronger, and pain-free.

01:26This is Mobile Physio, helping you move with freedom.
