I have spent months researching treating pain from hip flexor muscles naturally and discovered a great resource at Fergs Pain Ease (check it out on google)

Its for myself 2:53 3:53 6:02 6:41 4:33

Recent fan of Squat U. Stuff like this inspired me to go into physical therapy and Im excited to learn more and more! thanks Dr. Horschig

I love your videos! Lately, I have been experiencing hip-flexor pain every time I squat. Due to this I rather not go heavy but I want to make progress on my squat. I will try these techniques! Thank you again!

I ve had pain here for 2 years , one week of this and feel great Thank you Sir.

I hope this works . Even air squats hurt right now. It’s really killing my progress.

Thank you so much ! I stretch my hip flexors every day but I’ll add the mini band work to it too

Always Solid, Always informative, Thank You

Helpful, well-delivered video. Cheers!

Great question! Props to the asker! I suffer from this as well and these tips definitely seem like they attack the issue!!

My hip flexor are tight and weak due to too much sitting. So what's been working for me is to do lunges. I take a big step and go down as far as I can without letting my knee touch the ground. I then hold it in that position for as long as I can, give it a break then do the other side, then repeat. It helps stretch and strengthen the muscles through the range. If its tight, you are going to feel the burn, but it will feel so much better after with more strength in the hips.

I’ve had this pain for 3 years this improved my pain immediately thank you so much

Two things come to mind: A) You may notice relief as you have essentially started to improve mobility & stability of the hips and stability of the spine during your warm-up sets, therefor decreasing aggravation of your hip flexors. Eg. You start to stabilise your hips more with your glutes and/or start to stabilise your spine using your abdominal and oblique muscles. B) As you add more load to the bar you may adjust your movement patterns/technique when squatting and/or by placing greater demands on muscle fibre recruitment to support the increase in bar load, you start to stabilize your hips and spine your glutes abdominal and oblique muscles.

Just felt some discomfort for the 1st time when i did weighted step up to reverse lunges. I believe i extended to far back instead of bending and lowering my back leg like ive seen in some other youtubers demonstration videos on lunges... Well i noticed the discomfort when i tried squatting and immediatly stopped working out. Now im hoping i feel better tomorrow and gonna try all these stretches and hope to do leg day again toward the end of the week. Any extra advice or tips anyone has would be appreciated.

Could hip flexor issues be connected with pain on top of foot of same leg where the hip flexor is flaring at? Thank you so much for these exercises!! I'll try them out today before leg/glute day

I did a few different hip and leg stretching exercises nearly every day for a few months, and I think now my pain is away for good. The most important thing is to be patient, I was actually stretching for one or two months and nothing was improving, it really just came with time.

I was having a similar pain. Funnily, what helped me was stretching and lacrosse balling my glute abductor (adductor?)! I think it was so tight that somehow I was trying to compensate using other muscles... The exercises shown in this video are similar to what I was trying to do to ameliorate the tightness and then the pain. If your glutes are fine, maybe take a peak at your ankles. I hope this helps you

What about psoas pain in right lower back when I do pushing off movements like walking lunges on right let & right leg step ups??

Hi😃, I'm a Software Engineer and most of the time I'll be working on sitting in front of laptop. And currently I have a lower back pain and psoas major is tight ( I know this because I had the same thing 6 months before). What can i do to overcome this injury. Like how many sets or reps of glute activation exercises should I do daily? ANd most importantly how can i prevent this injury in the future.

I started crossfit late 2017 and into my second month I injured my psoas(R), or so I was told, and went to see a massage therapist who helped loosen up my hip and then after I took about 2 weeks off for recovery. Since that time my right hip has never been the same. It's tight, stiff, etc. The same has started to happen with the left hip. How many time a day/week would you recommend doing this mobility and strength rehab? I work through the pinching but I would really rather not feel it in even simple things like tying my shoes. ☠️

I would personally work on these exercises everyday. If you're feeling a pinching pain you may also be feeling hip impingement. I have a video in this series that addresses that.

I thought stretching is bad if you have a strain because it will aggravate ir even more. I guess thats wrong then.

so that pinching in hip flexors could be because of weak flexors itself so one way is to make them stronger
