Dread standing up after sitting?? 😞
Trying 3-5 receptions of each of these movements can help to loosen up the hips and help you to get on your way! 😇
Both of these movements are meant to bring blood flow to certain muscles that help to support the hip. This also helps to loosen the muscles so they don’t feel as tight ☝🏽
These should NOT cause pain, if they do, reduce the pressure and amount of effort first to make the movements light and gentle 🙌🏼
Details on the movements:
1️⃣ Press your feet into the floor to activate the backs of your legs and your glutes. You don’t actually have to lift your hips up very high, but think about doing it. Even thinking about it can get the muscles to activate. Hold for 3-5 seconds
2️⃣ Use your hands to LIGHTLY resist taking your knees out to the side. With hip stiffness, you may not be able to take your knees out very far and that’s okay. Think about using the muscles on the sides of your hips as you do this, hold each opening for 1-3 seconds.
Simple movements can be effective when you’re looking to reduce stiffness after sitting for a while ✅
If you also experience knee stiffness after sitting for a while I have a video on my KZfaq channel helping you through this too 🙌🏼
