#Hip Raise

Your hip flexors aren’t always “too tight”—they’re often just undertrained 🤷‍♀️ We blame our hip flexors for everything… Tight hips, back pain, poor posture, even that clicking sound when we stand up. But here’s the catch: If you sit all day, your hip flexors don’t just get tight… They also get weaker from lack of use. And if you only stretch them without building strength, you’re not solving the root issue. Signs your hip flexors might be weak (not tight): • You struggle to lift your leg high when standing • Your hip rotates when trying to step up • You stretch and foam roll constantly but still feel restricted • You feel lower back tension when doing leg raises or core work What to focus on instead: • Active mobility: think controlled leg lifts, not just passive stretches • End-range strength: challenge your hip flexors through their full range • Hip flexor engagement, not just release Want exercises for strong, mobile hips? Check out my Mobility Program or shoot me a DM for coaching details. BONUS: Can you guess which hip flexor I tore a few years ago — right or left?

💬 Comment “HIP ALIGNMENT” below for lifetime access to my 20-Week Program! Uneven hips? Here’s what that really means… When your hips are out of alignment — whether they’re rotated, tilted, elevated, or shifted forward/backward — it throws off your entire posture. This can lead to:
• Low back pain
• Sciatica
• Knee or foot problems
• Muscle imbalances
• Shoulder and spinal compensations Your hips are your foundation — if they’re off, everything above and below will pay for it. That’s why this Hip Alignment Routine is so powerful. These gentle movements help restore balance to your pelvis and retrain your muscles to hold proper alignment. Try this routine:
1️⃣ Knee Drops – 25 reps
2️⃣ Leg Crossover Stretch – 1 min each side
3️⃣ Femur rotations – 25 reps Ready to fix your hip alignment?

Strengthen them! 💪 Adding targeted exercises like these in this reel could really help! Remember, not all tension needs stretching sometimes, it needs strength🏃‍♂️🔥 #hipflexors #hipflexorstretch #hipflexorstrength #hiprehab #hipmobility

This is key for hip dips!!

Do you have issues getting into the 90/90 position for hip internal and external rotation? It’s not about forcing your hips, but allowing your hips to learn the movement that it has lost for many years. Working within your range of motion and being consistent will help them move become easier over time. #MobilityTraining #LowerBackPain #Hips

🚨Open Me! Most athletes think their “tight hips” or “weak core” are holding back their squat depth… but the real issue is often limited hip internal rotation (IR). Here’s what happens 👇 🔹 Hip Joint Mechanics: For a deep squat, the femur has to glide and rotate inside the acetabulum (hip socket). Internal rotation is essential for this clearance. Without it, the femur “runs out of room,” creating a block at the hip. 🔹 Compensations: When IR is restricted, your body borrows motion from elsewhere: – Pelvis: excessive posterior tilt (butt wink) – Knees: valgus collapse (knees caving in) – Lumbar spine: increased flexion and stress 🔹 Injury Risk: Over time, these compensations drive problems like: – Hip impingement and labral irritation – Low back pain from excessive lumbar stress – Increased ACL injury risk due to faulty knee mechanics The fix isn’t endless stretching… it’s targeted hip IR training to restore proper joint motion, improve mechanics, and reduce injury risk. 👉 If you need help restoring your mechanics and eliminate compensations at the root, comment “HIP FIX” below or send me a DM! I’ll build you a targeted 1-1 program that restores your movement and keeps you training pain-free. #hipmobility #functionaltraining #mobilitytraining #hippain

Hip strength/mobility is huge and often not prioritized. Now you don’t have to go wild and do these gymnastics type movements, but, working on basic exercises will help to⬇️ Offer numerous benefits, including improved stability, reduced risk of injury (especially in the lower back and knees), enhance your athletic performance, have better posture, and increase overall mobility plus range of motion! Want to start improving all these areas?! I got TONS of hip mobility exercises for you! Just message me! #hipmobility #hipworkout #hipstrength #hipflexorstretch #hipflexors
