#117 - Range Of Strength (Lucas Hardie) – Why Strength Is Useless Without Quality Mobility
Check Us Out On YouTube: https://youtu.be/pyocDxLIpZ8In this episode of The Gap, we sit down with Range of Strength to break down a truth most lifters never want to hear: Strength is useless if you can’t move well. You can chase bigger numbers, heavier loads, and harder sessions — but without quality mobility, none of it transfers where it actually matters. Range of Strength explains why mobility is the foundation, not an accessory.The positions you can’t access are the strengths you’ll never express. If your joints don’t move well, your technique breaks down, your power leaks, and your progress stalls long before your potential is reached. This conversation exposes the hidden limiting factors behind strength plateaus and gives athletes a clear blueprint for reclaiming their movement, unlocking real performance, and finally bridging the gap between “gym strength” and usable strength.
