I just tried the ones i can do at home. But i don't know if these will help the muscles around the rear. Lately they've been quite painful and i could barely sit or stand. There was a time when it was so severe that i had to go to the hospital because the spasms wouldn't let me straighten my back. It forced me on my knees....any thoughts on this? Could the muscles in the lower back around the hip become too lazy because i mostly sit? This is freaking me out 😟
Yes i am doing it for the first time and i can't hold the two leg, Artist straddle up long enough. I got a Cramp as soon as I started doing. But i kept push after it went away. My name is Ralfael but i go by Tha Rhythm and i had two patella tendon rupture in both of my knees 3 years apart from each other. I got surgery on both knees. So these excuses are a challenge but i accept it. I'm trying to get my knees better then they use to be. I am a allstyles dancer. So this means a lot to me. Thank you for the video and the wisdom that u are giving. I will be trying all your video to see how far this will take me.
Yes i've tried them. I found the first exercise okay but wasn't able to progress on to the second seated leg raises. By back couldn't stay upright and legs didn't budge off the floor :s not sure if its tight hamstrings or what

I just realized the reason why I was struggling with ab workouts. My fricking hip flexors burn whenever I do something that requires to hold my legs up. This gonna help a ton.
Being a boxer all my life my thighs are always tight, crashing into a wall did not help. You're hip flexor exercises has improved my mobility and my overall fitness. Thank you
Dude this is awesome!! I’ve always had super tight hip flexors, I was a sprinter in college and now I Olympic lift. I tore my hip flexor two years ago running sprints after a weightlifting and it had me sidelined for almost three months. I look forward to implementing these exercises into my workouts!
Out of all the videos, yours are simple and straight to the point, and the most effective! I don't know how many videos where I sat through minutes of talking for nothing.. well done, thank you for your content!
This is the best video IMO on 'hip flexor strengthening exercises' My issue is that my hamstrings are so tight that moving my leg past 90 degrees pops out my left hip. I've been trying to stretch it but I feel my lower back getting weaker and unstable. The sore pain that I have is getting worse by the week. It's like I keep finding the weak chain only to find it's compensating for an even weaker chain lol
Hey I have been playing basketball for awhile now and doing these exercises made me realiase that I am not as flexible as I thought I was. Some of these exercises are pointing out the lack of muscle flexibility in areas of my leg. I am going continue to these exercises till the flexibilty is improved.
Anything you put out for your channel you can expect 100% that I will be there to watch and learn and then implement into my own daily routine. Plus I like the backdrops in your videos, you set your stage in a nice calming atmosphere that really lends itself to the exercises you are doing. Take care brother and thanks once again for the knowledge.
I'll be doing this everyday even when quarantine ends so my Hip Flexors will get stronger. I'm having uses when doing the L sit because o my lack of hip flexor strength I hope this help
@@kalamaja pretty great actually after only a few weeks i could already do l sits twice as long as before. Before i could barely hold l sits for 15 seconds because whenever i try to extend my legs to complete the l sit it hurts and i suddenly shake. Now i can beat 15 seconds easily and it doesnt hurt as much as before.
This one is huge for me I notice I. Ant being my legs as high as I wanted when doing bar work this should definitely help eventually get to the point where my legs can touch the bar thanks bro 🤙
I blew out my knee and the doctor said it was because my hip flexors were weak so knee didn’t have enough support. I’m so glad I found this video so I can build up strength to protect myself from that ever happening again
all of your videos are very helpful, actually, I was trying to set my workout routine in the way you do and here I am immersed in each one of your videos, thanks a lot
My hip flexors are so weak; on the seated leg lift, I could barely lift my leg more than a couple of inches!😭 Forget about two legs! Grateful nonetheless for this content🙏
I have the upper body strength but my legs won't go to that 90° angle, did these exercises help? Same with tucked planche, feet touch the floor after 30 sec even if I'm not exhausted. Hip flexors really hinder my calisthenics learning.
I have hip impingement and I am not sure if it is from hip flexor exercises. Do you think it could be moving the ball in my hip socket (called hip impingement) Thanks!
Hi, I am unable to do exercises like L sits. I feel my abs are strong enough to perform the exercise, but I'm unable to hold my legs raised. Could my hip flexors be the reason for this? Thanks in advance.
Mainly the forward lunge type, and the Bulgarian type seated one where you reach over your head to one SIDE! hip flexor exercises. I think with most guys ,CONSISTANT stretching or a progression towards this when used to weight training can be brushed off too easily UNTILL a niggle/injury makes this mandatory..a lot of guys out there are too STAUNCH for stretching especially the elastic glute clam!!!!

Have you guys done any of these exercises? I’m interested in how many people have trained hip flexion before...😁👑

Stop stretching, strengthen instead. Do Nordic curls and jefferson curls for the hammys then come back to hit the hip flexors
Yes, I would focus on more strengthening for right now. I most certainly hope you feel better soon

@@kalamaja Thanks! I wish you luck on your grind man
Same
This one is huge for me I notice I. Ant being my legs as high as I wanted when doing bar work this should definitely help eventually get to the point where my legs can touch the bar thanks bro 🤙
Set and rep range please? And should we do this in combo (same day) as your anterior pelvix tilt weak core routine or on a leg day?
Hey Josh , which exercises are you doing for your upper legs,?they look very impressive.indeed.
I blew out my knee and the doctor said it was because my hip flexors were weak so knee didn’t have enough support. I’m so glad I found this video so I can build up strength to protect myself from that ever happening again
How was your strengthening journey?
Got me hooked on a hip flexor feeling! Hell yeah I'm definately enjoy your channel's contents! Thank you!
Love these ! My running has really inflamed my left hip flexors
all of your videos are very helpful, actually, I was trying to set my workout routine in the way you do and here I am immersed in each one of your videos, thanks a lot
I think it is good exercices for all peliv tilt , lateral ect
Great exercises 👌 Just what I need to strength hip flexors 💪
My hip flexors are so weak; on the seated leg lift, I could barely lift my leg more than a couple of inches!😭 Forget about two legs! Grateful nonetheless for this content🙏
I can’t even sit up straight like you. My lower back bends when I try
Great content. Lack of hip flexion is inhibiting my L sits and pike push-ups, can’t wait to improve!!
Yo just wondering did your L sits get better after these exercises? I think I can learn the L sit but my legs just won't go on a 90 degree angle
I have the upper body strength but my legs won't go to that 90° angle, did these exercises help?
Same with tucked planche, feet touch the floor after 30 sec even if I'm not exhausted. Hip flexors really hinder my calisthenics learning.
Coach thank you
How do I know if I should strengthen or stretch them if they are too strong or too weak?
OMG! My quads cramped up immediately with each leg lift exercise. I'll keep trying.
You should try to use a rowing machine lol.
Favorite part of my week is doing some work with Josh😎🙏😎
MrDesertmike hell yeah Mike! ✊🏼
Hey man, is pain (kinda sharp) on one side tightness or weakness?
As always thank you! Awesome video
neverhaveiever ever thanks! 😁💪
Thanks
FOR doing beginners exercises 👍👍👍
GREAT video
Thanks for sharing!
In the seated leg lifts, how can I avoid my quads cramping? It affects range of motion and how many lifts I am able to do.
You have helped me alot btw thank u man
Great video, instant subscribe.
Whoa! Amazing!
i agree that one of the most important exercises because of the weakness of my hip flexors dont let me do the L sit for a long duration
Heyy.. Can u please tell more about knee n ankle too..??
Tip Top! Been waiting for a hip flexor vid.. especially when you hit the big 50!😁
Are there any sets or reps for this?
I have hip impingement and I am not sure if it is from hip flexor exercises. Do you think it could be moving the ball in my hip socket (called hip impingement) Thanks!
Can this help tight hip flexors or should I first work on flexibility to get the full RoM ?
How does this compare to the captains chair we have at the gym? Would that be a more elementary position for people with less upper body strength?
My man. Sick little set of moves here! Bailed when i saw toes to bar lol
Omg I needed thissssssss
Nice stuff
Seems all these exercises activate lower abs too. Pretty good exercises 👍
Josh, how can we integrate this in a leg workout ?
Can we do this daily
Are these exercises good for people that have anterior pelvic tilt?
Hey Josh , what is the position of the lower back when doing the hanging leg raise? Does it have to be neutral or can it go into flexion?
Thank you.
Aaqib Latif Mizyan neutral is a good goal. But a bit of flexion shouldn’t hurt anything because the spine is unloaded and decompressed.
Again a great video. I am trying hard, because I am rather stiff ;)
How many sets and reps for each???
Pls someone tell
What’s the brand of pull-up bar he’s hanging from?
I'm having problems locking my leg out, as in keeping it fully straight. Anyone know why?
when i do hanging leg raises/knee raisesi had back pain. Does that mean I need to train my hip flexors first?
Those leg lifts cause some pain in the lower back, any reason why? I do ahout 45 minutes of fullbody stretching a day so i dont think its immobility
Speed 1.5 helps!
Hi, I am unable to do exercises like L sits. I feel my abs are strong enough to perform the exercise, but I'm unable to hold my legs raised. Could my hip flexors be the reason for this? Thanks in advance.
That, the hamstrings or both
Going for that l-sit but I have an anterior pelv tilt. Are these ok to do?
Chandler strength will never hurt you
Will this help with apt? Or any other pelvic problems like rotated hip etc?
Gabe The Babe strength is never a weakness.
I thought my abs were weak but it was the damn tight hip flexors!!
how is the rogue equipment called. ?
Does anyone know why my hip flexors hurt after holding a middle splits
