@upright health/ what if i feel like a numb tingly feeling near the inner thigh close to my pelvis? i also felt one little sharp pain but i feel like i may just need to ease into this, i do have plantar facitis and bad core, also hunchback..and a forward neck and yeah.. i might be leaning to the left more than the right also, any advice on where i should start? please get back to me

It's sooo nice to know I'm not the only one in my 20s with hip pain. Everyone just tells me I'm too young to complain about pain.

This got rid of my hip popping. I also did the FAI self test and after doing these two things, the popping in my left hip stopped popping COMPLETELY. Try it!! THank you for this video!!

Awesome! You're welcome!

Dude, your channel has changed my life. This stretch in particular is amazing. Wish I found this a while ago.

Hey Matt, I injured my hip while running on an indoor track and was searching desperately for some stretches which could solve the problem. I then stumbled upon your videos and after only a few days of doing this stretch, the glute stretch and the kneeling quad stretch I was running pain free! Thanks so much for all your help, you really are an absolute wizard when it comes to hip problems! I would recommend to anyone with hip problems to watch these videos and try some of the suggested exercises and stretches, I know it made a world of difference for me!

Absolute life-saver. After an intensive season of cycling (12,000km in total) I decided to take two weeks off and start running. I develop incredible back-pain, hip rotation and hip pain. So much so my doctor thought I had arthritis at 36. For two weeks I've been doing insense physio on my hips and nothing improved. 24hrs of this hamstring stretch and my back pain has gone, hips have released and opened back up. Its heaven. Thank you so much for putting this content out!

Wow, that stretch felt awesome! Thank you, kindly. I recommended your channel to my son who has shoulder pain from a work injury. Your channel has helped me a lot (hip injury from work). I know it'll benefit my son. You are heaven sent ❤ Thank you 😊

I'm very grateful for this channel. Thank you Matt for your videos!

oh my gosh this is the cause of all of my problems I had no idea until I just did this stretch and how hard it was and on my inhales I literally heard knots breaking up/loosening thank you!

Tried this technique yesterday. The pain vanished! I get pain in the front when I would do the Figure 4 piriformis stretch. No pain today. Keep the videos coming. Thank you!

This is an amazing stretch. Never felt anything like it. It's been very helpful in my steps to help this entire area. I appreciate how you explain the point of it & the connected areas. Ty.

Thank you SO SO SO SO SO SO SO much man. Like seriously, best stretch ever!! . Subscribed

“Pulling the pelvis” just instantly changed my whole perception of stretching, thank you so much

this fai series is great. keep it coming. more stretches and exercises for fai

I was stretching my hamstrings yesterday before a roller derby bout and I felt a pop and shooting down my leg. I was able to bear weight and skate but it felt weird and kind of hurt. Woke up this morning stiff and with pain and this video was the first one that has actually helped sooooo much!! I'm going to keep doing this until it's back to normal. THANK YOU!

wow! It hurts so good. Thank you. I will keep at this one!

All the answers I need on one channel! So awesome. I won't mention how long my hips have had a severe compensation. On the plus side no impingement. But ridding myself of the compensation has exposed weak atrophied biceps femoris. So this is the video I needed. Thanks so much.

Awesome video & awesome channel. This exercise exposed me to alot of hamstring tightness! Gonna get to work. Thanks!

I have NEVER been able to stretch my hamstrings right. With every way I've been shown before, the back of my knees would give me a lot of pain. These videos have helped me find something that actually works for me. Now I can work up to stretching the normal way!

You are so amazing! Thank you so much for all that you do!

Have had real tight over active lateral hips and glute medius, that seemed to tighten my lateral hamstring, this really loosened that whole side. Great stuff!

This stretch is magical!

Thank you for the videos, really helpful.

Absolutely helped!

Superb work.

Just started watching your hip videos. Hip pain seems so complex-is pain from bone on bone? tendonitis? bursitis? muscle strain or tear? is pain direct or referred? I have a 3D anatomy app which helps a little but your demos & teaching are excellent! This video made me realize that although my hamstrings are very flexible, doesn’t mean they are well- developed, which may put strain on other parts. Thank you for your top notch instruction!

Great advice! 👍

yes i found this very good at relieving lots of pain

Thank you so much

Thank you for the video

This might be the video I’ve been searching for for a year now

You're a Godsend!!! Thank you for the breadth and depth of info you've provided on this topic. I've been suffering for 4 years, since a laparoscopic hyst, and have seen 3 Obgyn's, 4 PTs, 1 Pelvic Fl. OT, 2 Physiatrists and a GP with pelvic/groin, hip & buttock pain that extended into leg and foot pain. None of the practitioners have been able to address symptoms on a long term scale, perhaps bc they didn't diagnose correctly. A couple questions for you -- So once a person see's some improvement from this stretch and starts getting the glute to activate, can s/he progress into any variety of glute-related exercises? Are there any movements one should stay away from? --- I would love to get back into cardio kickboxing, squats, lunges, etc eventually...

Thanks!! already had one replaced, feels good the other one is tight and feels not so good, been working on glute medius and hammies to increase strength

Love this !

Man I needed this video

This is amazing. Do you think it's a possibility I have worked too much on my hanstrings this creating a pull on my hips? I find my hamstrings to be stronger than my quads but so so tight. This felt great so I am ddf doing this everyday from here on out.

Holy crap - i jacked up my hip doing jiu jitsu and this has made my pain go from a 5/6 to a 1/2. Thank you!

Thanks for sharing this video. I am a skateboarder and have hip popping/impingement (and pronounced external tibial torsion as a result - mostly on my right hand side which is interfering with my balance on many manoeuvres). You mention that you had issues yourself in the past. Were your issues similar to mine? I understand I will never have the ROM of a 'normal' person but, with dedication, do you think that I will be able to improve my hip/foot posture as a result of mindful stretching and myofascial release? Do you have any other tips for this issue beyond this current video? Thank you.

Thanks matt

hi matt, first off, i love your channel. your stretches that i've tried have really been hitting the spot, thank you. when i try this stretch on the right leg, i really confuse my hamstring when i bend my knee. on my left it's the opposite; bending my knee takes the pressure off my hamstring and straightening brings the most tension, though i will say it feels more like a conventional stretch than the sharper and more definite "confusion" that i feel when i'm working on the right leg. i could go further into my situation (suffice to say, more PT's than girlfriends, so far), but on the surface; with that information, what would you say that says about what's going on?

I always loved the way leg raises engaged my core but I could feel my hamstrings grinding and popping so strayed away from them due to fear of causing tendonitis or anything of the sort. I did this stretch for a few minutes and not only do my legs feel more relaxed, my hamstrings don’t pop during leg raises anymore! You’ve got my 👍

That’s exciting to hear hope it works for me

Hello Do you have any exercise for groin pain. Thanks

how long do you stay in the position with the leg streched out and rotated and then going into the painful area? will you "pump" this stretch or just hold it and slowly move your leg? thx alot, markus

I'll be trying this later on.... Quick question I believe that the muscles in my left leg are so tight that it feels that it is shorter than my right leg. I feel like I have so many issues because of this i.e tight right leg calfs, hip instability, tight right foot, tight QL on left side , tight tfl on left side etc. How do I deal with this all, I.e where should I concentrate my efforts and basically start trouble shooting to identify the problem?

Is there a way to do this exercise effectively standing as I have knee problem on side opposite my hip popping. Such a relief to hear you comment about painful pop when you tie shoe!

What about if you have anterior pelvic tilt? Wouldn’t stretching your hamstrings make the condition worse?

Hi do you have any videos on High hamstring tendonitis? Would love to hear your thoughts on this I have an overstreatching Injury And it's impacting my running and cycling and just plain sitting, thanks

What is your take on using heat to chill out the tight muscles? Heat seems to be the only thing that kind of helps versus ice. But I've been half tempted to do I ice baths just to see. I've tried saunas, hot tubs, one thing I know that does help is a hot bath with Epsom salt and calming bubble bath. But it's kind of short-lived.

My right hip blew up six years doing sumo deadlifts. Today I still have pain in the right piriformis and groin, a tight right QL, the right hip is a little higher than the left, and I tweak my left erector a lot. Any quick suggestions over the internet? I've tried a bunch of your stretches already, Donnie Thompson, and Egoscue stuff. Have done plenty of glute and hip strengthing with bridges, monsters walks, low bar squats, etc. Not much progress. I don't really know what's wrong other than the pelvic imbalance, doctor visit soon, and probably an mri.

how often can i do stretches with fai? can i do it twice a day for example?

Will try it and report back. Enjoying this perspective.

While there is a lot of popping without pain in many joints for me (without pain) but it's worse in my left leg. From hip to knee to ankle. I'm wary of going to a doctor right now. Any pointers?

I have a weird symptom called "popping biceps femoris" my biceps femoris will pop out of place at knee when reaching 90 degrees. Ive tried many things but Ive found doing these stretches, running(for somereason) and doing pump work unilateraly for both legs before squatting eliminated the problem when excercising. Hopefully I will be able to resolve this and not need surgery. Thank you man!

i actually don't feel it in my lateral hamstring and feel it in my groin instead. help please.

That's great. What do I do after all the stretching? Can I do a fitness workout or just rest and repeat this stretch every day?

Hi mate, I just came across your channel, im loving it and giving most of your hip exercises a go. I have one question about this video. My foot points outward on the right, and left foot points in. I saw on one of your videos you mention to strech the lateral Hamstring because it pulls your foot out. When i stretrched it even just briefly I noticed a difference. So my question is, shall i strengthen the Lateral hamstring on the right side too and not just stretch it? Will that no cause my foot to turn out more? Regards, Yad

how many times a week? Both before and after fixing the issue.

*Love from India* ❤

I've got posterior pelvic tilt and chronically tight hamstrings and butt and have FAI so I was told to strengthen hips - Is this ok? Cause he said at 1:40 that it can make it worse? Haven't had much progress yet though

hey dude awesome work just i was diagnosed with FAI just at the start of this year and had a possible case of surgery but chose not to go that route for the past 8-9 months iv been doing alot of weighted squats and lunges appointed by my physio but recently my hips have been super tight and everything the physio has told me hasnt really helped up until now since im feeling super tight in the inner thigh , butt and lower back (this stretch has already felt so good since my inner thighs have been super fucked lately) having watched your video my perspective on FAI has changed heaps just bought a foam roller and cant wait to watch the rest of your vids keep up the great work +1 sub

yeah totally on you with that one i been doing low weights and high reps so it hasnt been too stressful on my muscles but god damn do they get tight after so iv been laying off them recently,i did your quad stretch, inner thigh/adductor and this stretch last night for a good hour and already feeling huge relief in my lower back and inner thighs their isnt any crunching feeling in my lower back and the tightness in my inner thighs is non existent thank god though their is still a nagging feeling sitting in a car but i guess thats a given dude totally love your approach (and sense of humor super lame but super funny.) esp stretching in strange positions / angles while moving considering iv been told not to do that by professionals it actually surprisingly works and makes more sense considering the types of movements i perform anyways keep up the good stuff!

How do I do this stretch in a standing position? I have cerebral palsy and both lateral hamstrings are tight and maybe are the cause of tibial torsion and feet out stance. My right leg is worse than left. However my quads and hips are so tight that I think starting this stretch at the kneeling position with my foot kicked foward would probably rip me in half or put me at high risk of injuring myself.

What exercises were you talking about that can tighten up the muscles in the front ? 1:40

Help! I have had problem for awhile. Where I hurt with this position is NOT tipping out to the side but tipping in on my left side. When I tip it in I have pain on the inner thigh. When laying on my back, it hurts to pull my left knee to chest with right leg straight. Also, when pulling towards chest and push on knee towards inside, it hurts bad in the groin. I have made a little headway but when bowling, I slide on left foot and to bend down to throw the ball is excruciating! Any advice I would greatly appreciate.

My right hip's internal rotation and abduction are horrid. Let's see how this helps because I already feel a variety of pulls and burns from trying this

i have short left leg when i put knees on the floor only right leg reach the floor

Im training for split slightly and after workout my hips hurt ....my halstring get tighter .. .how fix it

Ooh yeah that's good.

When I do hamstring stretches with a straight leg I can only feel the stretch as a pain in the back of my knee on either side. Only when I keep my knee bent can I feel the belly of the muscle stretching, with no pain just a satisfying stretch. Will stretching with a bent knee eventually lessen the intensity of the straight leg stretch or do I just have to tough it out with both forms? Thanks for these videos, they're really helpful.

+spacemansabs go with the bent knee for a while, then try with straight leg. It's all based on you as an individual. Sometimes you gotta go bent knee to get a stretch!

Do you have exercises for this problem without having to be on your knees?, because my right knee is unstable so I can't put pressure on it.

+Madlyn Powell, thefaifix.com is the complete program, and it is self-paced so you can start as a beginner and work up to a good intermediate level. We have an advanced program that's geared towards people who wish to achieve/maintain high levels of athleticism as well, but that can only be purchased AFTER you've done the Basic program first (gotta learn to walk before you try to run!).

After a long trail run, I woke up with what I thought was a groin pull. After a month worth stretching and foam rolling I finally went to the doctor. They xrayed it and said I have FAI . I've been doing some hip strengthening exercises as you mention in here but I just did this stretch 4X each leg for 1 min each and I've never felt such a tight muscle (on the injured side) lol. I've been stretching my hamstring by just bending over at the waist but this was so much more intense and it felt like a GOOD stretch. Immediately felt better in the hips. I'll keep at it and let you know how it goes.I have physical therapy but the first appointment isn't for another month (VA hospital). My only confusion is hearing you and others relate weak glutes to this injury. I have extremely strong and developed glutes and quads but my hamstrings are definitely a lagging part in relation to the rest of my legs. Any thoughts on that? Anyways, thanks for the vids.

+Jaker6 everybody can have their own differences. If you train a lot (sounds like you do), your issue can be from being really tight and bound up with muscles that don't know how to relax properly to allow full range of motion. For the average desk jockey, that can be an issue, but muscle atrophy from sitting all day also becomes a much more prominent issue. It really comes down to the individual. That's why the FAI Fix is such a big program with a test/re-test approach. We can't know everyone's unique specific issues - BUT we can give you principles to make decisions with (based on the many individuals we have worked with and continue to work with in a training environment)! :-)

+Upright Health I had a surgical consult where the surgeon said fai had been a bad diagnosis by my physician. By the time I had the consult, I'd been doing a ton of stretching foam rolling and getting deep into the groin/adductors with a massage ball and had improved immensely. I was using a lot of the tips from your videos and now I'm fully healed, lifting, and running again. My ankle and hip mobility improved a lot during the injury. I was definitely guilty of not stretching enough before. I can now squat with a shoulder width stance a$$ to grass without issue. Before, my ankle immobility wouldn't allow it and I'd be limited to a wider stance with my toes facing outward. So while the initial FAI diagnosis wasn't correct, your vids still helped with my recovery and ultimately improved my performance. Thank you, sir.

First, why don't you have a "Pain sucks, Life shouldn't" t-shirt! If you do, I would love to buy one! Didn't see it in your "store". I love your style and have a great way of explaining these topics, in a non-pretentious way. I am a little confused on the concept of stretching your lateral ham. If we're attempting to reposition the femoral head laterally/posteriorly, wouldn't we want to activate/strengthen the lateral ham and other associated muscles, and stretch the opposing muscles?
