Tight hips are a common issue we deal with here at Mission Move, and it is a problem that can affect your ability to do the things you love!
If you are a golfer, tennis player, or someone who enjoys regular strength training such as squatting and deadlifting, hip mobility is going to come into play here.
This hip mobility routine addresses hip internal and external rotation, hip extension, as well as some squat, hamstring, and inner thigh mobility. As with any stretch/mobility routine, consistency is key! With these types of moves, it matters less how many you do or how long you do them, and a whole lot more if you do a little every day or not.
I often joke with my patients that maintaining or improving your mobility is a part-time job! Unfortunately, it is the sad reality, and it is something that does take a lot of time and dedication in order to notice small changes. The good news is, the smallest changes can make big differences. A few extra degrees of hip internal rotation can be the difference between having pain or not with your golf swing. So, remember consistency is key and don’t get discouraged!
If you have any questions or concerns about any of these movements, comment below and we would love to help!
