When we sit for extended periods of time, the hips are flexed, or bent, and the large, powerful muscles that cross the front of the hip-the hip flexors-are in a shortened position. This leads to tightness of these muscles. We begin to see a loss of elasticity in the muscles, and this can be more pronounced as we get older and the muscles become a bit less pliable. Tight hips can lead to a domino effect of other body pain hotspots and even injuries. The hip flexors actually originate in the lower back, so when they get tight, it can place stress on the lumbar spine. Or you could experience pain in the front of your hip, either from muscle shortening or a pinching feeling from the rim around the hip joint socket.
So if you are someone who is experiencing these kinds of symptoms, this might be the exercise for you!
