Your Psoas Isn't Just Tight, It's WEAK [Don't Stretch, Do These Instead]


Blaming a tight psoas for stiff, achy hips? These 5 exercises will strengthen the area and reverse the damage from sitting.

The psoas is a use it or lose it muscle. Sitting much of the day causes it to atrophy and get weak. Stretching isn’t going to help. It only stretches out the tissues that are already pliable. It doesn’t build strength or create lasting changes in muscle length. 

Instead, starting with auto self-myofascial release and moving on to isometics and bodyweight exercises, building lasting strength and helping prevent achy, painful hip flexors. Do these 5 exercises that Coach E demonstrates a couple of times a week for a few weeks, and you’ll be well on your way to moving freely and without pain. 

We will focus mostly on the psoas, which is one muscle in the hip flexor group, and what we’ll focus on today. But a few more muscles in the area contribute to all the movements your hips control, the iliacus, rectus femoris, and pectineus.  

Remember, throughout all of the exercises, keep the lumbar spine in the neutral position because the psoas is also responsible for lumbar stability. It will help you get the most out of these exercises.

Understanding Tension vs. Compression in Flexibility Training | Anatomy Lab



Welcome back to the Anatomy Lab! Have you ever wondered why no matter how much you stretch, you hit a limit in your range of motion? Is it muscle tension, or is it your bone structure? In this follow-up to my last video on unlocking hip flexibility, we’re diving into the key concepts of tension and compression—and how they impact your flexibility.

In this video, I’ll break down what muscle tension and bone compression feel like and help you understand when you’re being limited by your muscles or your bones. By the end, you’ll be able to tell the difference and adjust your stretching or training routines accordingly.

We’ll also explore several exercises, like backbends, wall stretches, and hip flexion, to experiment with your body’s natural limits. Whether you're dealing with muscle tightness or bone restrictions, this video will help you move more safely and effectively in your practice.
