Is your “Mobility” Issue actually a Strength Issue?

Mobility is a hot topic in the fitness and CrossFit world. Many athletes spend a lot of time rolling on foam rollers, stretching with heavy resistance bands, and using lacrosse balls to try to improve their mobility.

If this is you, think about your reason for wanting to improve mobility. Do your muscles always feel tight? Are you struggling to hit a good overhead position? Is it painful to hang from a bar? Do you struggle to reach full depth when you squat?
