Running, hiking, walking, sitting, standing, jumping – literally anything can make your hips tight! It can be frustrating, debilitating, and demoralizing. So, I’ve put together 3 simple stretches to target a few of those pesky hip muscles. Perform each static stretch for 45-90 seconds/side:
- Frog Stretch – this inner thigh stretch targets the adductor muscles.
- RFE Stretch – this rear foot elevated stretch is great to target not only the quads but the hip flexors as well.
- Glute Stretch – butt sore? This stretch efficiently targets the glute max for those post leg-day painz
