The Best Way To Gain Flexibility - Is It Just Stretching?

We all know that stretching is a great way to improve flexibility—but is it the only way? Research suggests there might be an even better approach!

A recent study looked at two groups of older adults who trained twice a week for 12 weeks, each following a different routine:

✔️ Group 1 did an hour of strength training, followed by just two sets of static stretching.

✔️ Group 2 did an hour of dynamic stretching, followed by the same two sets of static stretching.

The results? Both groups improved their flexibility, and there was no significant difference between them. That means those who focused on strength training gained just as much flexibility—while also getting stronger! 💪✨

While stretching definitely has its place, research like this highlights how building strength is a powerful way to boost flexibility and overall mobility at the same time—a win-win!
