Not only are tight hips uncomfortable, they can also limit your range of movement significantly. Soreness in your lower back, knees and hips are all signs that you might have tight hips and might benefit from stretching the area (if you experience significant pain, of course, you should consult a medical professional).
I work at a desk and struggle with sore hips, so I'm always investigating stretches I could be doing to keep the area moving freely. I spoke to physical therapist Sydney Franko, who works with athletes at her clinic Recharge Sports, and asked her advice on which stretches I should do to loosen my stiff hips. She recommended these four movements and advised doing 3 sets of 8-10 reps of each movement.
