How To Improve Hip Mobility if You Have Hip Impingement (FAI)

In this video, I will show you how to improve hip mobility even if you have hip impingement. If you have FAI, will you have worse hip flexibility? Why do some people with hip impingement on one side find that their FAI side is MORE flexible than the side without cam or pincer impingement shapes? Learn the truth about hip impingement and hip flexibility and how to improve your hip mobility with FAI.

Doctors often claim that hip impingement bone shapes (cam, pincer, mixed) result in limited hip mobility. However, medical research shows alleged hip impingement bone shapes don't matter. Cam and pincer shapes don't affect pain or range of motion in the hips. By focusing on muscles instead, you can improve your hip mobility.
In this video, you'll learn how to effectively use contract/relax techniques to build strength in hip muscles. Creating strength at length will give you more hip range of motion and relieve your hip pain and discomfort over time.

    I had hip replacement surgery scheduled that was supposed to happen yesterday. My health insurance policy changed a couple of weeks ago and my Dr. and his hospital aren’t in my new network. They canceled the surgery and now I’ve found your videos! Thank the Lord I didn’t have the surgery. I’m praying I can fix my hip and not need surgery. I have acetabular hip impingement, moderate arthritis and a badly torn labrum (all the way around). I’ve been watching your videos and doing your stretches and exercises for several days and am excited and hopeful they will help me. Thank you so much! Mitch

    I have the same thing with my impingement.. if I try to contract the weak side, my strong side does the contraction... I can sit there for half hour and my hips completely lock up and muscles cramp horribly. After a few months I can occasionally relax the tense side and I feel stable, rooted and balanced with potential to explore range of motion... I wish I knew why I had such an emotional response but it probably has something to do with working 10-12 hour days cleaning carpets with my right side years ago

    Hi I was diagnosed with FAI bilaterally underwent Rt hip arthroscopy helped a little. I cannot bend it is very painful, I limp from the Lt leg and I can't bend my left leg. I can't sit on the floor because then I can't get up without struggling. I can't be standing for long time cause then I can't walk. It is frustrating 😢

    Does it hurt to walk when you have FAI .my right leg doesn't go past 90 degrees unless i warm it up If i pull my leg behind to stretch the front quads i get cramping in my hamstrings. Now i walk with a limp I took an xray my chiropractor said am walking bone on bone .any suggestions will be appreciated. The words used by my chiropractor was that i no longer have cartilage.

    Hey Matt, so I have had a lot of struggles with my hips(FAI) and listened to all your videos on FAI, and testimonials. Many things are very relatable to my situation, but some things are not lining up. When i work out, I feel great when I am moving and exercising, then later I get extremely sore, to the point i can barely walk sometimes. My mobility goes from ok or good to horrible constantly. Do you know why my hips are getting so inflamed after i exercise and any things that might help?

I suddenly developed what feels like fia pain on one side. What do you think happened? It's been at least a month now I've been trying to fix it with little to no progress.

    @@cookiepillay9068 Have you ever payed attention to TCM, Chinese Medicine? There are some acupuncture points which can also be treated by acupressure. I have FAI, arthritis and such stuff. These points helped me a lot. If you are interested I have good German book about acupressure (Das Tao der Akupressur und Akupunktur). The main points are Gallblader 27, 28 29, 30, 31. For the points Gallblader 27, 28 you should use just a little pressure. Very good as well is Kidney 3 and Bladder 60 on the feet. But the best would be to find a good Chinese Doctor.

    Why do you keep repeating no studies have shown a difference in ROM with bony abnormalities? There are several. There are also several meta analyses that show that FAI surgery like "Hip Range of Motion Is Increased After Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement: A Systematic Review". At the same time, many of those also point out how important soft tissue is to range, so a lot of what you're showing is definitely still valuable.
