Mobility exercise enhances joint flexibility, reduces your risk of injuries, and improves overall movement efficiency. As greatly beneficial as this form of exercise is, I am guilty of not factoring it into my fitness regime on a regular basis. So when I found this 5-minute mobility routine for the hips, I had no excuse not to give it a go.
Since it is so short, I added it onto the end of a 15-minute dumbbell core workout as I figured it would be a good way to cool down and hopefully relieve areas of my body that are prone to tightness like my hips and lower back. After rolling out one of the best yoga mats I was ready to go.
