  2. Mobility stretches are all about flexibility an important part of your overall fitness strategy that should never be overlooked or bypassed. Static stretches that last for 30 seconds or more are usually best done after exercise and the latter part of cooling down, whereas dynamic stretches are best performed before a workout to boost athletic performance and reduce the likelihood of injury. Daily stretching helps to increase your mobility and increase a person’s range of functional motion for everyday life. http://www.mobilizemeapp.com

  3. Static stretching is when a person gradually stretches a muscle and holds that stretch it activates sensory receptors called Golgi Tendon Organs that are located at the ends of the muscle. This causes the muscle to relax affecting static flexibility, the reason you should not do it before a workout. Dynamic stretching affects your dynamic flexibility or primes the muscles getting them ready for action. All types of stretches stimulate neuromuscular pathways that help relax muscles. http://www.mobilizemeapp.com
