What’s on the Mobility & Flexibility poster
Flexibility — passive range against Mobility — active range, side by side.
- Flexibility — passive range: How far a joint can be moved by something else

- Flexibility — passive range: Improved by holding stretches
- Flexibility — passive range: Can exist without control
- Mobility — active range: How far you can move it under your own power
- Mobility — active range: Requires strength through the range
- Mobility — active range: Improved by loaded movement at end range
- Mobility — active range: This is what transfers to real activity

Strength at end range is what closes the gap. Passive stretching alone widens it.

- Who is the Mobility & Flexibility poster for?
- Mobility & Flexibility belongs to the Body & health section rather than to a school year, because health is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning movement can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.
- When should you use the Mobility & Flexibility poster?
- Flexibility is how far it goes. Mobility is how far you can control it going. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Mobility & Flexibility belongs on the wall where that health work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
- What other posters go with Mobility & Flexibility?
- Breathing Under Load, Common Injuries and The Core sit alongside Mobility & Flexibility in the Body & health section. Printed together they make a wall rather than a single sheet, which is how a reference set actually gets used.Breathing Under LoadCommon InjuriesThe Core
- Is the Mobility & Flexibility poster free to download and print?
- Yes. Mobility & Flexibility downloads as a free PDF with no account, no email and no watermark, like everything else in the Body & health section. Print as many copies as you like for a home, a classroom, a library or a tutoring group; reselling the file is the only thing the licence rules out.Read the licence
- What size does the Mobility & Flexibility poster print at?
- Mobility & Flexibility is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download. Because every mark on it is drawn rather than photographed, it stays sharp enlarged to A3, A2 or A1 at a copy shop. Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Mobility & Flexibility loses nothing.Printing guide
