Stretch your hip flexors and quads

Stretch your hip flexors and quadsThis ties in with tip number 3 from your sports massage clinic Liverpool, and should have been placed before it as you’ll want to stretch the hip Flexors and quads before you do the Glute bridges.

These days our lifestyles seem to dictate that we sit for extended periods of time. We get up, drive to work, sit at our desk, drive home, possibly go to the gym where most people sit down on a cardio machine or weights machine and then we go home and sit in front of the tv before we go back to bed. This is a continual cycle of around 12-16 hours sitting down. This leads to a shortening and tightening if the quads and hip Flexors, switches off your glutes, leads to an anterior pelvic tilt and increased lumbar lordosis and puts added pressures on the lower back and pelvis.

This is why you want to relax and lengthen these muscles and then activate your Glutes to help restore correct mechanics of the lower back and pelvis and take the pressure off your joints and soft tissues.

We have regular exercise video updates on our Members page.
