I think most of us repeat like broken records the importance of a full range of motion, but don’t really know why we’re advocating it beyond just wanting to have healthy appreciable movement. Is there any more to it than that? Does scientific research actually support striving for a larger range of motion? John reviews a study on this exact topic on today’s show and also breaks down a variety of thoughts and theory on possible ways to work around range of motion deficits that may be tough to overcome at times. John always reviews the full text of every article, but to see the abstract of the study discussed, click here: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23629583If you enjoy this podcast you’ll love the MUSCLE Detailz tribe – more info at http://appliedmusclescience.com/detailz
