WHY YOUR HIP FLEXOR MUSCLE FEELS TIGHT!
For as long as I recall I was told to stretch my hip flexor because in PT My Thomas Test showed that my hip flexor muscle was tight.
That was in my 30's and I am in my 50's now.
I followed all the PT and fitness advice and stretched my quads and my hip flexor muscles consistently.
Guess what?
My hip flexor muscles were not my problem...
It was deeper than the muscle and now at 50, I do things that improve my hip joint health and do not stretch those muscles anymore.
In the show today I break down the myths surrounding the hip flexor muscle, dig into the research and find some things you will want to hear about.
Hope you enjoy the show. DM me to connect.

WHY YOUR HIP FLEXOR STRETCH DOES NOT HOLD....
You stretch your hip and it improves your Range of Motion. Then you wake up and it's tight again.
In our 40’s every thing seems to change when it comes to our joints and our muscles.
The change multiplies in our 50’s and every decade after.
Things that use to work don't seem to do as much for us as they use to do.
This is probably because we are getting older, right?
WRONG.....
Age cannot be blammed on your hip tightness, in fact the research that I found has not shown me that age is a large part of the tightness you are feeling today.
Menopause is not the full reason either...
Learn how predictable this change is and what you can do about it on the podcast.

Is hip pain a normal part of aging? Is the hip flexor the best treatment option for you when you are over 40?
Aging is 1 component of hip pain, but it has not been proven to be the only reason you experience pain and the hip flexor stretch is good if you want to improve your ROM, but for people that want improved joint movement there may be other options. In this episode of The Health Movement Podcast, Episode 250 I break down why your hip flexor stretch does not hold and I review the research, talk about what I see in my studio and break down what works for people over 40 wanting improve hip mobility, capacity and function. I will put the link to the show in the comments. Enjoy

WHY DOES YOUR HIP HURT AT NIGHT WHEN YOU LAY ON IT?
When you go to lay on your side at night to fall asleep and you feel pressure in the hip or you wake up with hip aches that make you have to reposition yourself to fall back to sleep either disturbance is frustrating.
What is happening?
Most people think they need a new bed, but before you go out and purchase a new bed, consider the health and movement of your hip.
When your hips are restricted the nervous system is working overtime to keep the movement in that joint restricted.
The muscles are in a holding tight position that causes a feeling in many of stiffness.
When you get into a sidelying position when your joints have been restricted for a long time, the pressure can wake you up.
What you can do?
Save this post and share it with a friend or family member that claims they are struggling with sleep when they lay on their hip.
A Hip joint capsule that is restricted can be unlocked and the pressure can be resolved with gentle hands on joint stretching.
Let me know if your struggling to sleep on your hip by commenting below.

Stop thinking that your loss of mobility and strength are because you are getting old. The aging process happens but loss of healthy movement is not due only to aging.
There are things within your personal control and things that are outside your control that can be restored and preserved.
But stretching, fitness, strength training, pilates, and walking will not get back what you have already lost.
The good news is that you can restore and preserve your movement. You can regain motion and reduce the risk of ortho surgeries, decrease pain, increase movement, flexibility and more.

This is why your joints feel stiff and your muscles feel tight. Most of us think these signals are a sign we need to stretch. Many stretch and get immediate relief then you feel the need to stretch more.
What does that mean? If stretching works for us then why do we have to stretch at all.
In this weeks podcast I walk you through the question: Can I open up joint space without surgery or injections after age 40.
The answer of course is yes, but the answer also is that stretching does not open joint space.

On this week's podcast, I talk about everything tight hip joints.

I answer the question: Can you open space in a tight joint without surgery or injections after 40?

The answer is yes, but you can’t do it with stretching or strengthening.

Learn about 2 types of motion in the show this week. One you have partial control over, and the other you can’t voluntarily stretch or strengthen.

But you can open the space, and I will tell you how you can do that in the show.

Enjoy the podcast and YouTube video.
