Daily News | Three exercises to improve hip health
Healthy hips are essential for supporting the pelvis and core, creating a strong base from which the legs can move freely for everyday activities such as walking, running, stair climbing, sitting and standing. Yet they rarely get much attention in most fitness routines.
Sitting restricts circulation, affects posture, and is a particularly problematic pose for the hips as it shortens and tightens the hip flexors, located at the front of the pelvis. When this happens, your hips’ range of motion becomes limited and that can result in pain. Keep your right foot flat and slowly straighten the leg as much as possible. Hold here for 20 seconds, then practice on the opposite leg.
Slowly lower the right leg laterally down toward the floor. Avoid allowing the upper back to lift from the floor. Keep the neck loose and relaxed, as it will want to tense as you hold the band. The only part of the body moving is the leg.
