Notes:

• Mobility isn’t Flexibility. Mobility is active range of motion while flexibility is passive range of motion. Mobility is dependent upon strength.

• Muscle guarding is the tightening of muscles surrounding a joint which is unsupported causing stiffness and sometimes pain.

• Real strength means stability and control through an entire range of motion.

• Strength isn’t just the ability to produce force but also to control it

• Positional strength is important to understand to prevent injury and to improve results.

• More range of motion means more muscle growth (Sliding filament theory)
