Скачать или смотреть Hip Mobility for the Deep Squat

When my hips were locked up, I wish someone had told me...

I needed to teach my body how to close the angle between my leg (femur) and upper body.

When our hips aren't used to being flexed more than 90 degrees (like when we're sitting down), our lower back will compensate for I sufficient hip flexion.

As a result, our hips will travel backward behind our ankles (which moves our center of gravity behind our ankles...making us feel like we're going to fall backwards).

We can maintain a neutral spine and feel balanced during our deep squats by improving our ability to tilt our pelvis anteriorly as we descend into our squat.

(Note that ankle and knee mobility also play a role in being able to sit comfortably in a deep squat)

"Seated Good Mornings" are absolutely for
✅️ helping us regsin our ability to tilt our pelvis forward
✅️ improving adductor, hamstring, glute flexibility
✅️ strengthening lower back

Here's a simple routine that can be done 1-2 times weekly to improve hip mobility for deep squats:

3 Sets of:
1️⃣ "Seated Good Mornings" (x 5 reps)
keep spine neutral
focus on tilting pelvis anteriorly

2️⃣ "Straddlle hip flexor lift offs" (x 10 reps)
while seated on the floor in a straddle position, keep legs straight and use hip flexors to lift legs off floor
