Why you should be doing Mobility Exercises & Flexibility Training

If you want to avoid problems with your joints, muscles and back as you get older, especially in the later part of your life. Then you need to be doing Mobility and Flexibility Training.

Why you should be doing Mobility Exercises & Flexibility Training

Being able to go up a flight of stairs in your senior years, or to be able to carry your grandchildren in your arms and be able to play with them can be determined by how much flexibility and strength you will still have in your later years.

Without regular exercise in our late thirties, our flexibility may start to decline. As simple as reaching down to your toes or sitting down on the ground could start to hurt as our mobility and flexibility starts to decline.

Benefits of Mobility and Flexibility Training

  1. Reduces joints and muscle pains – When performing climbing motions such as climbing up stairs and ladders, we put more strain on our joints and muscles. This is because as we age, our muscles get heavier and tend to decline strength. Thus, making it painful to walk longer and climb stairs as we get older. However, doing Mobility and Flexibility Exercises strengthens our joints and muscles making it less painful to climb up stairs on stronger muscles and joints.
  • Maintains Balance and Reduce injuries – Mobility training also practices our limbs to balance properly. Regularly training for mobility and flexibility improves our brain to coordinate with our muscles, thus improving control to balance our body leading to less slip and fall injuries.

  • Improved Strength and Stamina – Doing mobility exercises strengthens our muscles and improves flexibility, enabling us to do cardiovascular exercises with ease. Cardio workouts such as walking, jogging, calisthenics exercises, and even weightlifting can be improved through stronger muscles.
  • Supports Cardiovascular Training – To do more cardio work, we must improve our flexibility. Performing stretching exercises that target our muscles improves our range of mobility leads to a longer and better performance in cardiovascular exercises or cardio training.
  • Minimizes Muscle Degradation – Our muscles degrade as we get older. Elders over 60 may have already begun to experience degraded grip strength. Reduced grip strength is a sign of compromised mobility and flexibility amongst seniors. But muscle degradation can be minimized when doing mobility and flexibility training, as we exercise our muscles to maintain its strength, our muscles tolerance for pain will be stronger at our later age.
