I struggled to achieve full range of motion in my hips until I tried this one hip-loosening stretch for five minutes a day

Tight hips can be uncomfortable and hard to live with, but there are some great exercises to stretch out the area. I particularly struggle with discomfort up the sides of my hips and limited range of motion, so I decided to incorporate a five-minute stretch into my day to tackle the issue.

The stretch I chose is the reclined hip stretch and it can be done before you even get out of bed in the morning. I just kick off my covers first thing and take five minutes to do this stretch. I also spoke to a physiotherapist to make sure I was doing it correctly.
