STRENGTHEN TO LENGTHEN

We asked is mobility important? 🗣YES was the resounding response

Then we asked, do you prefer to incorporate Passive or Active drills - 💪Active was the popular choice.

We agree 👍🏻 Here’s why:

Eccentric contractions (muscle contraction in a lengthened state) training not only has its role in strength training, however also plays a huge role in lengthening tissue.

Therefore it is important to incorporate eccentric loading strategies in to your daily routine.

Another thought 💭 what if a mobility dysfunction to the ankle is a protective response due to vulnerability of loading structures above it, eg hip or low back? Would you start with Ankle mobility or commence trunk and hip loading strategies??? We’d love to hear 👂 from you - always interested to hear how others approach active care.

As a prerequisite, with gratitude 🙏 to @dnsrehabilitation we focus on trunk / breathing awareness and integrate the peripheries adding challenges to not only improve tissue loading capacities but to improve mobility also.

We’d love to hear from you on how you approach your mobility challenges
