RepostBy @dr.surdykapt: "HIP INTERNAL ROTATION . Hip internal rotation can be overlooked in terms of mobility since it seems like a position we don’t encounter often during daily life or lifting activities. I think it’s an integral part of overall hip health and function as it’s usually one of the first motions to go later in life. However, don’t interpret this as meaning that you’re going to develop hip pain or problems if you lack hip internal rotation. It may just be something to explore if you’re having difficulty or discomfort at the bottom of a squat or some other position. . Since there’s plenty of videos floating around on how to improve unilateral hip internal rotation in the 90/90 position, I figured I’d make a video of some bilateral variations. As always, you can use bodyweight, a band, or whatever ways you want to be creative. The ball is meant to keep your hips from drifting into abduction. Performing a posterior pelvic tilt may also allow for a few extra degrees of motion. . If you really want to improve hip internal rotation, it takes a lot of work and dedication. Practicing these movements can make the hips feel better overall without even having to make a significant change, though. ̐ #hiprotation #mobility #lifting #hiphealth #hipfunction #hippain #internalrotation #unilateral #rotation #bilateral #bodyweightstrength #strengthandconditioning #physiotherapy #physio #physicaltherapy #physicaltherapist #sportsperformance #strengthandconditioning #prehab #posture #osteopathy #bodyhack #stretching #athlete #chiropractic #training #motivation #flexibility #physiology #sport
