I think bernie from weekend at bernies can do this stretch.

[paragonx88]

Was that a box or a ufo?

[MattDurden]

lol, these comments are too funny

[moulinyan]

i feel this in the right place, but its in the leg that does not have the knee on the ground is that right? 

[arynzerr]

@moulinyan

lol no...

[yourassismine]

Has the box disappeared, or have we?

[yutuberize]

thanks knucklenose

[DdotTindall]

This is the best stretch for hip flexors

[cdoubled05]

I laughed immediately after reading a disappearing box comment then watching the first few seconds of the video.

[take5toexercise]

Great cues. Well done!

[cyanidesan]

The other day I had to move a dozen heavy boxes.. i just did 12 hip flexors and my work was done.. this really works because I didn't have to lift anything heavy that day! thanks.

[jbcfedfchbrf]

Box was there. Box is gone. You can't explain that. Never a miscommunication.

[808raised]

[Metsada007]

I feel it strongly in my thighs/quadriceps.

[Metsada007]

It's a great exercise but it hurts my knee on the ground.

[Lamentfordeath]

@Metsada007 Try putting something soft under your knee.

[liam196501]

[kgiles0]

thanks man this really helps me out, mine was really hurting me to the point to where it was hard to walk, after doing these I can actually walk without pain thanks

[getchizzled]

my knees pop when i do that hahah

[echo3211]

hey, do you know how to tell if you have pulled your hip flexor muscle?

[alex4011]

@echo3211 i did and i could feel it tear and it was very painful. I couldnt play ports for about 1 and a half weeks. But you definately know when you tear it..

[Lamentfordeath]

@echo3211 you'll know. 

[mdqd]

This is an awesomely detailed demonstration. It really helped the tightness I was feeling in my back, hip, and pelvis. Thanks!

[drjeal]

Excellent Video, well explained

[dumbelekzz]

will you get smaller hips by this?

[Jmbern2]

@dumbelekzz

Its a strech.....

[dragonfly7975]

amazing detailed explanation! thank you!

[nealart]

Thanks!

[RunOut1724]

My hip flexors have always been pretty tight. I hurt my right hip flexor 2 weeks ago playing ice hockey. Still hasn't gotten better. It sucks because i can't do any legs or cardio or skate.

[tlambert]

Well done and well explained

[xa7x578]

i injured my hip flexor in basketball and i did this stretch to help, but i didnt feel it in my hip flexor. i did learn one that you go into a starting lunge position and move your pelvis foward, it really works

[thehandsomegiant]

hurts more than it did before, nice one

[celticgreen3492]

yes! worked like a charm

[Iethereal]

Just today I was doing a trial 100m and my hip felt like it popped and damn did it hurt!

I just got home and now im looking for ways to ease this pain after walking home (ouch). This is working the best for me, thanks for this video bro. 5 stars

[witnessforfitness]

thanks for the post! many people forget that these are so important to stretch.

[amerkashi]

Excellent explanation of what to do and what NOT to do. Thanks mate!

[kaywhy13]

Thank you soooo much! I injured my hip flexor in soccer two years ago and I stretch it every time I exercise but it still gets sore. I actually feel this stretch and I can do it myself. Thanks!

[salenta1]

Hey, thank you very much.

[Moggridge1]

Thank you, very good.

[aarionlerainatread]

Wonderful demonstration and explanation.

[sb6bb]

Great demo, the only thing that I would like to comment on is that some sources feel there is a fascial connection between the psoas and the diaphragm (according the myers), so adding a breathing and arm component might help. overall this will help a lot of people

[PigTrickster]

Great description on what TO DO (and feel) and what NOT TO DO (and feel).

[2pzgren142]

nice one, cheers

[MichaelJLgs19p]

Thnx, very beneficial

[WesleyT112]

great video :)

[elalwani]

Great, it helped a lot!
