LOOSEN UP STIFF HIPS FOR BETTER TRAINING

Here’s a simple glute and groin stretch combination I use to mobilize my hips and loosen up my lower body.

Watch how I do it, then try it out yourself.

Spend some time mobilizing your body with gentle movements and light stretches. You don’t have to do this right before your workout — make mobility part of taking care of your body and preparing it to move.

TIPS:

Get your body warm first. A little brisk movement to get your temperature up can make moving and stretching feel a whole lot better than starting out stiff as a brick.

Put some clothes on!

Don’t start out cold. Keep your body warm while you mobilize and stretch instead of standing around freezing and wondering why you feel stiff as a brick.
