When my hips were locked up, I wish someone would have told me... That strengthening the end range of motion was truly when the magic would happen ans hips would no longer feel stiff and restricted. Our "end range of motion" is the maximum extent to which we can move a joint. "End range of motion" for hip external rotation is the extent to which we can turn the top of our femur outwardly (ideally, we can rotate our femur 45 degrees when our hip is flexed at a 90 degree angle). To improve our hip

The best way to get up from the floor when we have "bad" knees is to recruit as much glute muscle as possible. When our upper body is completely vertical (I.e. traditional "split squat" exercise) when we stand up, we will use more of our quadriceps muscles to transition from the ground to standing. But... If we angle our upper body forward (into a "hinge" position) and shift more of our weight to the front leg (I'd suggest at least 60% of your weight in the front leg), we will recruit much more

👇 10 min Knee Strength Routine 👇 1️⃣ "90-90 Hamstring Bridges" (x 45 sec) - the key with this one is tucking hips under first (posterior pelvic tilt) to minimize glute involvement in the bridge AND not lifting hips into full hip extension (i.e. we're not lifting our hips as high as we would a regular glute bridge) 2️⃣ "Forward Lean Straight Knee Calf Raises" (x 45 sec) - think about pressing balls of big toes into the floor as you try to make the distance between your heels and back of knee as

🤫 A secret to achieving flexible hip flexors... Is glute strength 🍑 If our glutes aren't strong enough to maintain our hip in full extension, Our hip flexors will become tighter to stabilize the hip joint. The "low lunge" is an exercise that helps to accomplish both tasks (of improving hip flexor flexibility and glute strength); squeeze the glutes to pull the hip into extension and you'll feel the hip flexor stretch. Friendly reminder to keep the core engaged during the exercise so that our lu

💫 Struggle to sit in 90/90? You are not alone, my friend 🤗 We commonly see the 90/90 as a base position from where we can work on our hip mobility. BUT... The 90/90 position in itself is an EXPRESSION of mobility; to sit comfortably in the 90/90, we need adequate ✅️ hip internal rotation ✅️ hip abduction ✅️ hip extension Even if we've lost our range of motion (i.e. hips Locked up), it's not lost forever; we CAN regain our hip mobility. Here's a routine to start improving hip mobility of the tr

When my hips were locked up, I wish someone had told me... I needed to teach my body how to close the angle between my leg (femur) and upper body. When our hips aren't used to being flexed more than 90 degrees (like when we're sitting down), our lower back will try to compensate for that by rounding and traveling backwards behind our ankles (which moves our center of gravity behind our ankles...making us feel like we're going to fall backwards). We can maintain a neutral spine and feel balanced
