Those of us who row, cycle or run regularly are likely to only be using our hips on a linear motion ie front to back - whilst this can improve our glute max function it can weaken our glute med and min leading to lateral (side to side) instability which can be the cause of hip (& ITB), knee and even ankle issues. If this resonates with you try adding in some X-band walks to your weekly exercise plan

We use this to strengthen mind-muscle connections with the glute medius pre-training.

If this resonates with you try adding x-band walks into your week

Reduce your Hip, Back, Knee pain by activating your glutes…

To activate your glutes you need good hip flexibility, low back mobility and hamstring length. If you are spending significant portions of your day sitting it’s likely that your glutes are inactive which can be the cause of sore back, hips and or knees.

If this is you - take the 7-day stretch&glutes challenge… 10 minutes of daily exercises every day for 7 days

Daily stretching exercises for all rowers, who, like me, want a routine that will help to reduce stiffness in hips and low back, prevent injury and activate ...
