Why Feeling Tight Doesn’t Always Mean Something Is Short
Feeling tight does not always mean a muscle is physically short. Tightness can be influenced by movement habits, workload, recovery, strength, sensitivity, stress, sitting time and how your body is sharing effort. Stretching may help some people, but if tightness keeps returning, it may be more useful to look at the bigger movement picture.
