This webinar transcript explores mobility for Olympic weightlifting, focusing on the relationship between sensory-motor integration and physical performance. Rodney Korn, Director of Education for Eleiko, explains that muscle spindle function is the primary driver of joint range of motion, rather than the length of the tissues themselves. The source highlights that common practices like prolonged foam rolling can actually deactivate these spindles, leading to instability and a protective tightening response known as reciprocal inhibition. To counteract this, the text advocates for targeted activation techniques and short-duration massage to ensure tissues slide and glide effectively. By prioritising neuromuscular stability over p ...
