Stiff hip stretches - 5 minute hip mobility follow along

Stiff hips? 5 minutes of hip stretches will help you loosen stiff hips safely and with almost no equipment necessary.
In this video, Matt takes you through three simple hip stretches that will help you relieve tension and beat hip pain. These three hip stretches will loosen tight hip rotators and inner thigh muscles. When your hips are painful and stiff, rest is not the answer. Resting your hip muscles just leads to more atrophy. This relaxed hip mobility follow along will help you restore flexibility to your hips gradually, and it's all in a small 5 minute dose that you can do whenever you have time!
Don't give up on improving your hip mobility. Work on it daily to improve your flexibility and overall health!

I used to do yoga 3-4 times a day in my 20’s, swimming, running and then I stopped working out but relatively skinny with muffin topping and I’m no longer size 0, I’m like worst than a size 4 and it sucks to be in pain. I’m avoiding yoga also. I hope to be able to do all my workouts again soon and not be in pain.

Matt ive been dx with bilateral FAI. X 2 surgery made no difference on right hip. Its mainly deep acheing pain in trochanteric region, there is no groin pain. The big trigger is the sitting yoga position which leaves bilateral soreness for weeks.. any tips. Could it be gluteal tendionapathy, although pain is not palpable. Could you put some more videos on tips for those with FAI + purely lateral trochanteric pains and whether we need to avoid external rotation and abduction stretches initially as per GTPS protocol.

Your videos inspire me, although I don't know if they are intended for my complaints. I do notice that it improves mobility and reduces pain. I prefer to postpone surgery for as long as possible. Are there any exercises that you can recommend to me?

What can you do for hips that can't do the butterfly at all. I've been told by two orthopedic surgeons that I need hip replacements on both sides. I've been to PT twice once in 2011 then in 2018. Same exercises clam shell bike steps monster walk. Nothing that really helps with more range of motion so I can sit butterfly style. The pain is excruciating and Both Drs told me my right hip femoral head was deformed from a bone spur. There must be something I can do. Can't even meditate and sit lotus style or do any of the poses that cause you to open up the hips. I believe I can gain more flexibility. Just don't know how. At 45 I am not doing a double hip replacement. 😬😭

I appreciate all of your content and find much of it useful but the Butterfly is a problematic stretch. Earlier this year I hurt me knee pretty badly doing the Butterfly stretch. It set me back almost two months. Only afterward did I find out that the Butterfly stretch is known to put pressure on the medial meniscus.

@Uprighthealth 3 жыл бұрын

Sounds like you were putting in WAY too much intensity on the stretch. DON'T try to force yourself into positions. Doctors like to blame tiny structures like meniscus and cartilage for mobility issues. It's a pointless and disempowering perspective backed by ZERO science. ATM. Always think muscles. Walking, running, skating, hiking, jumping, and walking up stairs all put "pressure" on the medial meniscus. And millions of people are walking around right now with "meniscus tears" with zero symptoms. Learn how to stretch properly. If you follow the advice of "don't do that motion ever again..." you'll find yourself in pain, lying on the floor, wondering why you can barely move anymore. I can tell you that from experience.

@jj273 3 жыл бұрын

@@Uprighthealth "If you follow the advice of "don't do that motion ever again..." you'll find yourself in pain, lying on the floor, wondering why you can barely move anymore. I can tell you that from experience." I believe you about your personal experience, and I'm sorry you've had to go through living with pain. But I wasn't doing the stretch intensely. I hadn't even placed my hands/arms on my knees yet. I just got myself into position, and almost immediately felt a sharp pain in my inner knee. It was a position I'd gotten into basically every day when I was younger. But with an older body that has taken a pounding (from various things, including martial arts) stuff that used to be OK isn't always OK anymore. "Learn how to stretch properly." With respect, I've been an athlete since I was 12, and among other things was part of a highly competitive martial arts team with instructors who had won or were competitive in various national competitions. I know how to stretch. I've read about stretching extensively including authors who are academic researchers and others who have trained olympic athletes. If I were a betting man I'd be comfortable wagering that I've read more about stretching than some trained physical therapists. The butterfly position was fine for me for years, until it wasn't.
