Use your couch for opening up the front hip and leg muscles. This is an advanced stretch technique which targets hip flexors, quadriceps and anterior tibialis muscles. Great stretch for runners and athletes or anyone looking to open up the hip from too much sitting and biking.  It's also used for treating anterior hip pain after injury or from repetitive strain and poor mechanics.

How to prevent running injuries with hip stretching?



Easy hip stretch to open up the hip joint and muscles. I am really emphasizing hip openers for anyone looking to improve their running performance and running after injury. This is a great stretch that stretches both hips in multiple planes and specially great for opening up the hip joint for better movement and preventing running injury. A must after you finish your run or other athletic activities. Most of us sit too much and over time tend to get stiffer and stiffer through the hips often leading to lots of problems like low back pain, knee pain, sacroiliac joint pain, hip pain, etc. You don’t need anything fancy, I am using a picnic bench and it works great.

For most of us who sit for long hours in our modern lifestyle, hip tightness can be a major problem. This often leads lots of other problems like low back pain, runners knee pain, sacroiliac joint pain, iliotibial band pain, hip pain and can basically affect structures above and below the hip joint. The anterior or front hip tissues often become very tight. Very important to stretch the iliopsoas and rectus femoris muscles and anterior hip capsule/ligament to free up the hip. This 1/2 kneeling position is a good one to stretch and open up the front of the hip.
