Hey guys its Naudi at functional patterns again today I'm going to teach you guys how to release some muscles that get very bound up whenever you're at work they're called your hip flexors there's multiple different hip flexors that i'm going to teach you how to release but this is just going to be one of them its going to be the insertion point to where your tensor fasciae latae which is the muscle right here on the outer part of the hip and your sartorious begin so were going to use a lacrosse ball to get in there and dig these muscles out now when you're sitting at a desk and your hips are in a constantly flexed position these muscles are going to get shortened there's going to be a constant shortening of these tissues happening throughout the day so guess what your brain is going to memorize the shortening and then you end up with a posture like this almost to like when your but is sticking out and you kind of have a sway in your lower back what I want to do is get into those tissues break them up that way were not set into this posture and the hips can balance themselves so were just going to be right here on the floor the place were going pinpoint this lacrosse ball is going to be about right here on the hip you're going to find a little groove that sets right in here and we want to keep that lacrosse ball right in place in that direction so that way it won't slide around so sometimes you may feel like it its slides to the inside or the outside really try getting to that center point we're going to lye down this is kind of what it will look like from a side view if I was standing up were going to apply direct pressure and it may be pretty challenging to see where the ball is I think you might be able to get a clear picture as to where it is from there were going to extend the arm out and the bottom foot out and I'm going to keep this almost as a support system if I feel like this is too much pressure on my hip I can take some pressure off with this foot if I need to again this can become very painful if a lacrosse ball is too much you can just regress back to a tennis ball and that's just as effective to atleast get you introduced to it but eventually you want to progress to a lacrosse ball if I'm in front of my computer and I'm watching a video or something like that I'll just hang out here for about 10 to 15 minutes until these tissues finally disperse ok so we'll work into the other side again elongate the body a straight line from the top of my hand all the way to my foot the opposite leg the leg that's not getting the attention comes over the top and again we're applying that pressure right here on the front part of that hip alright guys that's how we release our tensor fasciae latae muscle if you have any questions or are curious as to what it is that I do you can visit my website at www.functionalpatterns.com take care
