The Hidden Key to Longevity and Health: Unlocking Your Mobility

August 21, 20236 min read

We like to joke that you might look cool sitting in a full lotus pose, but if you need someone to hoist you back up afterward, it's not quite the accomplishment you might think.

Picture This:

you're about to embark on an exciting hiking adventure with friends. 

The breathtaking views, the sense of accomplishment as you conquer challenging terrains – it's all within reach. But as you start your hike, you realize that your body isn't as nimble as it used to be. Your joints feel stiff, and you find it challenging to move freely. You notice some balance an coordination issues on rocks, and you can’t pick that leg up as high as you’d like for these awkward steps. Suddenly, that thrilling adventure starts to seem daunting.

Mobility For Longevity

At TrAk Athletics, we believe that true fitness extends beyond raw strength and endurance. It's about embracing the full spectrum of movement and mobility. Mobility is not just about being able to touch your toes or strike a picture-perfect yoga pose; it's about having control and actively using your joints through their full range of motion, and in conjunction with other parts of your body in use. Think of it as having the ability to smoothly transition in and out of various movements without any restrictions.



Sure, it's impressive if you can do the splits or get low into a deep squat, but what good is it if you can't get out of those positions without external help? We like to joke that you might look cool sitting in a full lotus pose, but if you need someone to hoist you back up afterward, it's not quite the accomplishment you might think!



True mobility lies in actively controlling your range of motion. It's about being able to move freely, fluidly, and with grace. Imagine having the strength and control to flow through various movements effortlessly – that's the power of mobility. That comes down to  a well balanced strength training, cardio, flexibility, balance, and coordination routine. 



Now, you might be thinking, "I'm young and active; I don't need to worry about my mobility just yet." But here's the thing – mobility is not a gift bestowed only upon the young; it's something we need to work on throughout our lives. Just like strength and flexibility, mobility tends to decline as we age.



A study published in the Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics found that flexibility in the lower back and hamstrings significantly decreased with age. Another study in the Journal of Aging and Physical Activity revealed that both mobility and flexibility were negatively affected by aging.



But here's the good news – just like strength training, you can train and improve your mobility even later in life. Another study published in the International Journal of Sports Physical Therapy showed that adults over 60 could enhance their mobility with targeted exercises and training programs. The key word here is targeted exercises and training programs, this isn’t a one day fix. Nor is it a I’ll just get a massage an roll out 1 day this week. 



As we age, our bodies experience various changes, and maintaining mobility becomes crucial for preserving an active lifestyle. Strength training combined with specific joint mobility training can help you stay agile, prevent injuries, and enjoy life to the fullest.



Let's talk about the practical benefits. Remember that hiking adventure we mentioned earlier? Well, with optimal mobility, you can confidently navigate uneven terrains, tackle steep climbs, and explore new trails without feeling restricted. Research has shown that mobility training can improve gait and balance, reducing the risk of falls in older adults. So forget seeing yourself in a 127 hours remake about a broken ankle hiker fighting off wolves hopping on one leg on the mountainside; you’ll maintain control and balance far better.  



Moreover, maintaining mobility can prevent the dreaded cycle of injury and weight gain in older adults. A study published in the American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation found that seniors who experienced a fall-related injury were more likely to gain weight in the following year. This can lead to a downward spiral of reduced activity levels and further mobility restrictions, impacting overall health and well-being. 



So, how do you unlock your freedom of movement and embrace the full potential of mobility? At TrAk Athletics, we've got you covered. Our expert coaches design comprehensive mobility training programs that address specific limitations and improve functional movements.



We utilize a holistic approach that includes dynamic stretching, bodyweight exercises, Compound movements w tempo and timing, and targeted movements to enhance joint mobility. Our coaches are well-versed in assessing your individual needs and tailoring workouts to unlock your range of motion.



Say you are unable to attend Trak; but still want to work on that mobility, here are three tips to incorporate it into their normal routine:

  1. Morning Mobility Routine: Begin your day with a short and simple mobility routine. Set aside 10-15 minutes every morning to perform dynamic stretching exercises and bodyweight movements that target different muscle groups and joints. Focus on moving through a full range of motion and activating the muscles around the joints. This can help wake up your body, improve flexibility, and set a positive tone for the rest of the day. Hop on Youtube there are 100s of options of movement ideas to start. 

  2. Mobility Breaks Throughout the Day: Incorporate mobility breaks into your daily schedule. Take short breaks every hour or two if you have a sedentary job or spend a lot of time sitting. Use these breaks to perform quick mobility exercises like shoulder circles, hip openers, and neck stretches. These micro-breaks can help alleviate tension and stiffness, as well as improve blood circulation.

  3. Evening Stretching Routine: Dedicate time in the evening to unwind and stretch. Before going to bed, spend 15-20 minutes performing static stretching exercises that target major muscle groups. Hold each stretch for 20-30 seconds and focus on relaxing into the movement. This can help release muscle tension accumulated throughout the day, promote better sleep, and improve overall flexibility over time.





If mobility seems too daunting then flexibility may be a good start, but aim for true mobility is going to be the key long term to living life to the fullest. It's not just about performing impressive poses; it's about having the strength and control to actively use your joints throughout your journey. Don't let the passage of time limit your potential – unleash your mobility, maintain your active lifestyle, and savor every moment of your fitness journey.



At TrAk Athletics, we're passionate about helping you achieve your fitness goals, and that includes unlocking your mobility. Embrace the power of movement, defy the limitations of age, and enjoy the boundless possibilities that come with mobility.



Remember, the journey doesn't end; it just gets more exciting. Let's take the leap together and explore the world of movement and mobility for a healthier, happier you!
