How to use "Inflexibility" in context?
When we discuss "inflexibility," we often times think about muscles and joints. Our muscles are always getting stronger and more flexible, but our joints can be very inflexible. This means that they don't move as much as we would like them to, and can cause pain and other problems.
Joint inflexibility is usually caused by muscle imbalances, which can be the result of genetics, lifestyle choices, or injury. When the muscles are overworked, they can become stiff and tight. Joints are also impacted by the way we move.
