How To Fix A Tight Psoas (Stop Stretching And Do This Instead!)

Stretching caused me the most damage. Once, I was searching on Google and looking for an Amazing stretch to fix my tight hips.I found my self injured for years. Sinc I met something new and is to stop stretching and start strengthening. I use trigger points release to quads for a small window then I Strengthen my glutes and core. Now I feel my body much stronger. Less tightness.less pain. So stop stretching for good

i’ve been doing hip stretches for ever and my hips have always constantly popped and have been tight. do you know if the hips popping is a sign that my psoas is weak or tight?

PsoASS

I'm a chronic marathoner. trying to figure out what's causing pain on the top edge of my left hip bone. Honestly i can't say if it's on the front or back. I figure if it's the front it's psoas. What might it be if it's posterior? Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks so much.

Is this only a condition for athletes? My doc told me I have this. So far no relief with the exercises and muscle relaxers.

Thank you

When just starting out with this exercise, how many reps do you recommend for each side?. Thank you

There are huge urban myths that every muscle pain is caused by "tight" muscles when I'd argue most times it's related to excessively weak muscles essentially in constant spasm from a lifetime of dysfunction. Maybe this could be described as tight, but I think that doesn't correlate in the laypersons mind as a need for resistance training.

Everyone wants to go to a chiropractor like it's a magic cure when they really need a gym membership, a proper trainer, and a kick in the butt that their lifestyle is not working

Thank You for posting this! Will share. One question whete is a good place to buy the stretch band you are using?

Hello Doc!
I've following two questions relating to this exercise:
1. What should be the position of pelvis in this exercise?
2. I also feel tension in my core (sides), is it normal ?

Thanks and regards
