Learn one easy exercise combining seven elements to ease your hip pain. It's a functional integration technique, so committing it to muscle memory will keep your hips healthy every time you move. Whether you have SI joint pain, anterior hip pain, short hamstrings, poor glute activation, or even knee pain, this is a great place to start building healthy movement patterns.

You won't need any equipment, but it does start with the foundation of the short and skinny foot exercise (link below). The order of the muscle activations is important. Start slowly or follow along with the video. Remember, if you struggle with activating your VMO (vastus medialis oblique), you can tap on the muscle with your finger to make the bodybrain connection.

You can check your posture using a stick if you want to go above and beyond. It could be a hockey stick, broom, small piece of lumber, or whatever object you have on hand. It doesn't need to be fancy.

The second half of the video dives into what each activation does for your body and movement patterns. The exercise is one of the most complex activations we teach. Take it slow, and it's helpful in the long term to understand the whys behind this exercise.
