MOBILITY and FLEXIBILITY exercises for rapid progress!

Are you tired of having a stiff body and aches and pains all over? 

Do you want to make rapid progress in your sport, training or well-being while avoiding injury? Are you looking for the best mobility and flexibility exercises? You've come to the right place 🔥

This article will guide you through the importance of mobility and flexibility, the fundamentals of improving them and the best exercises for achieving them effectively. 

Let's go! 🚀

    The best exercises for improving mobility and flexibility quickly

    The workout we're going to introduce consists of 14 exercises, lasts an average of 15 minutes and targets the whole body.

    The exercises are to be performed for 45 seconds with a 15-second rest!

    This session is part of the "Transformation Maison 2" program which is 100% free 💪

    Before doing so, we advise you to warm up. Warming up warms up the muscles and reduces the risk of injury.

    Here are the different flexibility exercises:
