Dr. Gaby Go, DPT, Run Coach on Instagram: "If you have tight hip flexors and are only focusing on stretching, you might not be addressing the root of the issue ❌ When the hip flexor muscles are weak, they often tighten up as a way to compensate. This tightness occurs because your body is trying to stabilize and protect the hip joint, which can lead to feelings of stiffness and restricted mobility 😔 By strengthening the hip flexors and surrounding muscles, you can help alleviate this tightness. When these muscles are stronger, they no longer need to rely on compensatory tension to provide stability and function ✅ In fact, strengthening your hip flexors can improve both flexibility and mobility. As the muscles become stronger, they allow the hip joint to move through a greater range of m

Dr. Gaby Go, DPT, Run Coach on Instagram: "Did you know that knee pain and dysfunction can be related to weakness at the hip❓ The hip and knee joints are closely connected in terms of biomechanics and movement patterns. When there’s weakness or dysfunction at the hip, it can affect stability and alignment of the entire lower body kinetic chain, including the knee 🦵🏽 For example, if the muscles around the hip are weak, it can alter the way you move and distribute forces during activities like walking, running, or squatting. This can lead to compensatory movements and increased stress on the knee joint, resulting in pain and potential injury over time. Strengthening the hip muscles can help restore proper alignment and function, reducing strain on the knee and alleviating pain ✅ When i

Dr. Michael Giardina, DPT, OCS on Instagram: "🚨GLUTE MED HIP STRENGTHENING🚨 🟩 The glute med muscle is very important to train. It is a pelvis & lower extremity dynamic stabilizer as well as hip abductor. The role of the gluteus medius during activities such as walking & sports such as running, basketball, and soccer is to dynamically stabilize the pelvis. 🟦 Another important factor to note is the benefit of glute strengthening in regards to knee pain. Current evidence states that HIP & knee strengthening is not only effective, but also SUPERIOR to knee strengthening alone, for ⬇️ pain intensity & improving activity in people with patellofemoral pain (knee pain). 👉🏼 SWIPE LEFT to see the following glute med exercises demonstrated by @bretcontreras1: . 🔹Extra Range Sidelying Hip Ab

Lisa Mitro, Physical Therapist for Runners on Instagram: "Your hip flexors might not be tight because they are shortened⬇️ Comment “YouTube” for a video explaining why with more exercises so you can get rid of the tightness. When they are tight, I love to add in mobility of the hip joint and strengthening. Static stretching of the hip flexor is usually not in my treatment plan because it doesn’t address why it feels tight. Try these instead: 1. Hip flexor to hamstring flow 2. Half kneeling lift offs 3. Plank to twist 4. Standing pelvic tilts If you want to see the full YouTube video, just comment YouTube and I will message you the link ✅"
