Welcome to Bend, Don't Break. I am Putri Anggraini, and Thursday is our talking day, so you can stay in your chair for this one. I want to tell you about the most flexible person I have ever met, who was me, at 24, and who was injured more often than any student I have taught since. Because flexibility and mobility are not the same thing, and the difference is why some people can fold in half and still hurt their backs picking up a bag of rice. We will talk about what mobility actually is, why holding a stretch for twenty minutes changes almost nothing, and how a little bit of strength at the end of your range will do more for your stiff body than any amount of bending.
