training can be a
beneficial tool/intervention to improve
flexibility and range of motion.
Definition: Flexibility is the absolute
range of movement in a joint or series of
joints and muscles that is attainable in a
momentary effort that could involve the
help of a partner or piece of equipment.
The flexibility of a joint depends on
many factors, particularly the length and
looseness of the muscles and ligaments
due to normal human variation, and the
shape of the bones and cartilage that
make up the joint.
