Best Strength Programs for Mobility (lemmy.world)

Right now I do free weights a couple times of week, a little bit of yoga, and then a fair amount of cardio. Now that I'm in my late 30s I seem to be injuring myself a lot. Little stuff like pulled muscles, tendonitis, joint pain etc. Yoga has definitely help and I've adjusted the cardio I do. Any recommendations for a strength plan that focuses more on mobility, flexibility and not injuring yourself?

If you don't already, you might want to warm up and work out with full rom in your exercises. Getting a deep stretch under load is good for muscle growth and injury prevention. You won't need to use much weight, and so you'll have less wear on your joints.
