Jan. 14 - after trying everything, I tried your exercise for the last couple of days. Immediate improvement and I was able to get back in the gym for other leg exercises. Thanks.
@@Rise4L The groin pull has subsided, but for those reading this, needs constant care via exercise and stretching. I discovered that my pull was the result of my not attending to (strengthening) surrounding muscle groups. Doing that work took the weight off of my groin so it could heal properly. I'm not a doctor but I play one on TV. 🙃
I had been having left hip flexor pain every time I squatted for the past few weeks. Figured it might be because of tight hips. I tried this routine out for the first time before my squats and they were completely pain free. Thank you so much
From experience... Barefoot running [in minimalist shoes] and ice massage from foot to knees cured mine over years... Achilles will benefit from all thing foot mobility, and foot strengthening [especially the toes... Elevated calf raises where you rise up on the toes will be huge for you, as well as duck walks].
@squatuniversity Can you recommend some training I can do strengthen hips and work on mobility. I want to increase height for roundhouse kick as well as better stability and strength for compound lifts ie squat and deadlift. I also find my right leg wants move closer to my left when I am just standing and my right foot walks on the outside of the foot. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
look at his other video called "The BEST Hip Opener", there he goes more in depth on how to do this stretch and also weight, not sure what he used in the video but I use a 14kg kettlebell.

@@ja7020 Same... I've also used whatever dumbbells I had a available as the counterweight. From what I've gathered, upright posture and form is the most important part of this technique.
If you strained your groin, it means you overstretched it (probably a weakness there). Never stretch or massage strains. Rest and ice the first 48 hours, and continue with heat after 48. Now this is great for preventing groin strains.
@@mightymight365 Appreciated, and thank you. I think it came from Cycling using a bike that was too large for me. So, no elliptical, abduction machines or squats?
All of the stuff him and KneeOverToesGuy presents are known techniques within the Sports Medicine world. They present them in unique ways, but much of the stuff is lesser known stuff or things invented/used/proven by Poloquin.

@@Rise4L Better! I just have to be consistent in my workouts.

Wow my hip mobility was awful. I needed this
This has helped me to relieve pain from my sciatic nerve 💯 helps alot
I also do this daily . Thanks to this channel . My mobility is slowly getting better .
Same!
This man is a legend - instead of spending loads of money on a physio, his videos helped diagnose and effectively treat my minor injury. Top man!
Much needed as I approach 50. Thank You!
Let me just say, the glute squeeze before leaning into the stretch is clutch.
How much does it cost to get diagnosed by this guy
Get this man 1 million subs he is a national treasure!!!
He really is.
He almost has 3 million subs now...how many was it 11 months ago, and 4 months ago?

I had been having left hip flexor pain every time I squatted for the past few weeks. Figured it might be because of tight hips. I tried this routine out for the first time before my squats and they were completely pain free. Thank you so much
so you just did it right before squats and ypu could do them painfree at the same weight?
Such a great warmup before lifting. Cheers
Nothing like loosing the ability to run pain free and then getting that back. It’s life changing.
think my arms are too long for my legs bcuz the kb keep hitting the floor and can't get a good stretch lmao
This is sick. Amazing stuff
Can this possibly help with lower back pain while squatting?
Opening your hips is almost guaranteed to take stress off of the lower back. Speaking from personal experience and research. Hope this helps.
look for kemo mariott tutorial on youtube, most self-taught squat enthusiasts don't even know the basics of a good posture while performing a squat.
May also want to try some heel wedges for more range of motion until you can increase mobility.
I've been having the same kind of problem for months. Tried right now, incredible improvement. You're a wizard 🧙🤗
This guy’s videos are some of the very best things on UA-cam. I ❤️ him!
I just started following because you give free tips to help improve/correct discomfort during workouts.
You’re a hero!!!
I swear. In love with this exercise.
Love your stuff
Hear Hear! This movement and the Banded Hip Mobility have been Game Changers... I recently added the Hip Airplanes, and will add Clam Shells...

Definitely trying this today
Incredible I need to try this
Man been fighting this for years!!! Gotta try this out
Cossack squats are nice too
Nice one lad
Goldmine of knowledge
Love this tried yesterday one day helps with the tightness
Hey coach! Do you have a regression of this movement? Some of my clients do not have the ability to kneel on the ground
I feel the shift affecting the knee with contact on the ground and not the one in the direction of the shift. Any tips?
We can't let him go away with this, every time.....!!!
How many reps and sets should you do for these and how often?
thanks❤
I love this for my one side but when my right leg is on the ground I get a shooting pain from my glute to my back and inner hip socket
Can confirm also on the right track now! 🤙👌 thanks lol
I do this because I noticed it helped stretch out my hips, I had no idea it was an actual technique 😲
Who’s the lady in the opening?
she *HATT*
aight i found out it's lilytings
Need this
Will this also strengthen your hips?
DOCTOR. Do I need this exercise if I already can put my calfs behind my head???
😂
Good vide what song is that at the beginning?
Is there some other exercise you can do if you have bad knees? I'm older. ❤
How much kettle weight to start with?
She got me feelin funny
I need your help!!
Can you do this with out a kettle bell?
Do you have any suggestions for the outside of the hip? Inside feels great after this. Outside still kills me sometimes.
I need to do this, my right hip is so worse compared to my left.
Any tips of something to use at home if you don't have actual weights?
Would this help with sciatic pain?
Do you have anything for patella tendonitis?
ice and change your socks mixed with Motrin. You're welcome.
I have tried this a number of times and it ultimately aggravates my SI joint. Any idea of what might be going on?
Is this routine meant to be a pre-leg day warm up or should this be a focused workout with working sets on its own?
I noticed you had him stretch his left inner thigh. But what will that stretch on the right leg as he stretches the left inner thigh?
Kettlebell is the way , wish I realized sooner
Can you please show how to fix Achilles and shin pain

Will this stretch help SHS?
I get pain in my glutes when doing this, any advice for that?
My physical therapist recommened me this but I always get a pain feeling in my glutes when doing this. Any tips?
i have hip pain when squatting but good score in hip faber test and stability whats wrong

What type of bands are used for the clamshell exercise? Is there a resistance that is preferred?
Is this something that can be incorporated daily ?
Which glute should u squeeze?
Do i do this on both sides or only on the tight side?😅
Is this why I can't do a 90/90 pigeon pose? My groin is too tight?
Test and retest :)
@@platosbeard3476 Lol, nice
Aaah my glutes cramp up immediately

I want to be healthy and strong from head to floor, not just core.
Are this and others advices in the squad bible? I have been thinking about buying it
Should we do this before or after a workout?
always stretch after a workout
Is this OK to do before Squats or better for after? (Worried about static stretching before)
👌👌
@SquatUniversity What weight KB should we be using for this?
look at his other video called "The BEST Hip Opener", there he goes more in depth on how to do this stretch and also weight, not sure what he used in the video but I use a 14kg kettlebell.
I believe hearinf him say any weight

what kind physical therapy is this called? like sports management?
What kind of specialist helps with this?
I would say a physical therapist, gym Trainor maybe, or massage therapist
What helps piriformis syndrome? I try this.
When I try this workout I'm enjoying this
I tried this but it's painful
How much should the kb weigh?

I used a 30lbs kettlebell, that was a good weight for me.
Can someone plz tell me what does "opening up you hips" ?

Them bowlegs
Sorry, I'm distracted he's barefooted walking around that building
@squatuniversity teach your runner to not hyperextend his knees (like he does in the final seconds of this video) 😎
I tried this day one and felt amazing after.. like literally life changing
His knee bends the other way in the end. I think he's an emu bird
....hey Sam 👀. Cutie.
It the kettlebell really needed? Don’t see a point of the weight here.
It's just to encourage a straight torso, doesn't have to be very heavy.
Sam is broken
