Stick Mobility Is Great For All
How you move is an essential part of how you navigate through life. Most of the time we don’t really think about it until we have to. Many of us focus on our cardio and strength workouts without giving mobility training a second thought. But mobility training is not just for seniors.
If you want to move better, train better and counter the effects of hours of sitting, mobility is an essential part of your fitness program. Stick mobility can help you move with more ease and efficacy. It can improve your athletic performance and prevent you from getting injured.

How Does Stick Mobility Work?
The mobility stick is a pliable dowel-like tool with non-slip grips. The versatile yoga-inspired device was invented by three Personal Trainers in 2015. It is now employed by countless elite athletes to up their game, as well as people of all ages and abilities. Using a mobility stick is a great way to improve your mobility, strength and stability.
You can either push or pull the stick in designated poses that activate all the muscles along your kinetic chain. The mobility stick provides leverage for better positioning and range of motion.
The rubber grips on the top and bottom allow for more muscle engagement. This excellent tool helps you to stabilize your stance so that you can deepen your stretches.
