Hip Openers 1

Many people and in particular, many horse riders and cyclists, moan about having tight hips. That makes sense, as spending a lot of time sitting means the hip flexors stay in a shortened position for longer than they should. Constricting the muscles in this way can make the hip flexors extremely tight, especially if the effects of sitting aren’t countered with hip stretches on a regular basis.

This class shows you how to perform the Thomas Test to check to see if your hip flexors are tight as well as showing how to do some simple stretches to help alleviate any tightness.

This class is suitable for Beginners.
