If you want to improve your mobility, then follow this flexibility workout on a daily basis. Mobility and flexibility can decrease with age and inactivity. In many cases low back problems are associated with poor flexibility and weak abdominals. Improvements in range of motion can lead to improvements in performance and a decrease in injury rates. Warm up before stretching to avoid tearing connective tissue. Use the flexibility workout to relieve muscle soreness and improve joint mobility.
