3 Exercises for Athletic & Mobile Hips

In this video, we discuss exercises aimed at training proper hip dissociation - an often overlooked and undertrained function of the hips. Poor hip dissociation is commonly a reason for pain and poor performance.

Some key points discussed in this video:

• What hip dissociation means. Hip dissociation is the ability to independently move the hips without compensations from the rest of the body.
• Why poor hip dissociation and compensations are often a reason for low back pain, hip pain, and even pain within the knees and feet/ankles.
• How poor hip dissociation is related to increased risk of injury.
• Why the inability to move properly though the hips limits athletic potential and will negatively impact your performance.
• And most importantly - what to do to improve your ability to move your hips independently with simple exercises that you can perform at home, at the gym, or basically anywhere with just a few simple tools.
