Many people experience tightness in the front of their hips or discomfort and pain in the hip flexor during exercise. In this post, I'm going to talk a little bit about why this is happening and what you can do about it.

A common cause of tight hip flexors is the regular session. When we sit for a long time, a few things happen:
-We outsource the work of our backends to our chairs, which puts additional stress on the front of the hips.
-Our structure adapts to any position we have for longer. So if we keep hip flexion (sitting) all the time, we still have a lack in the front of the hip when we get up.
-This means that even if we get up to walk or exercise, we are predisposed if we have a lack in the front of the leg, which means a lack of hip extension and therefore a lack of gluteal activation.
-This is all a recipe for Lower back discomfort because if you cannot stretch your hips, overstretch your lower back.
-Irritable hip flexors because they are activated. All. The. Hour.
What can you do about it?

The first thing is to be aware of your seating and desk habits.

The second is stretching and corrective exercise.

I have read a few articles complaining about the ills of stretching the hip flexors (namely arguing that they don't work or cause joint instability), and I say that there is nothing in a vacuum.

However, you want to do it exactly so as not to overload the lower back.

After stretching the hip flexors, you want to do some hip stability exercises.
