Sat on your backside all day? Chances are, when you stand u,p your hips aren’t happy. Even if you feel discomfort in your lower back, this can actually be linked to your tight hips. Even if you can’t get out for multiple walks a day, your body doesn’t have to suffer. In a recent Instagram post, Personal Training duo, Milad and Ryan, founders of Tailored Fit PT, have shared three bodyweight exercises that will loosen up your stiff hips and make them happy again.
“This mobility routine will help you move better, feel better, and actually enjoy movement again,” writes Coach Milad. Our hip joint connects our legs to the pelvis and is crucial for healthy lower-body movement, as well as supporting our bodyweight. When our hips become tight, it’s not just a nagging pain you’ll experience – which can sometimes extend to the glutes and lower back – but you’ll generally find it harder to move freely, whether that’s squatting down to pick something up off the floor, performing exercises in the gym, or running efficiently.
