Think you have “tight” hips? 🤔 Possibly.
OR, you could have undertrained/weak hips!
Try out a few of these hip strengthening exercises to build function and strength specifically to your hips!
1. Single Leg Bench Hip Extensions
Anchor 1 foot down with a weight, pull the other knee to your chest, slowly and controlled lean your body backwards until parallel with the ground - progress this slowly!
2. At the Knee Copenhagen Dips
Using a bench or box, lay your top leg on top of the bench and squeeze your lower leg as best you can to touch your top leg the entire time. Dip your hips to the ground and only let your hips actually make contact with the ground.
3. Standing Supported Hip Rotation (My clients most loved and hated exercise😂)
Use a pole for stability and keeping an upright torso. Lift knee straight up, maintaining the knee position - rotate the leg 90* or as best possible without bending your body away. Rotate shin parallel with the ground still maintaining bent knee position and not leaning away. Return to start
Get these into the routine and start feeling those tight hips loosen up!
