    Tight hip advice

    Posted: 25 Apr 2020 03:41 AM PDT

    Hi there, during the current lockdown I have been working on my hip flexibility/mobility, and it is going fairly well, but I have one tight spot that I just can't seem to diagnose/stretch to make it better. I am looking for any advice on which muscle it may be and stretches that might help.

    The best way I can describe it is that somewhere in the inner front of my right hip something is super tight when I try to raise my knee to my chest (or bend my torso down in a pancake type stretch). It almost feels like a locking sensation where as I raise the bent leg everything will be fine and then it will suddenly go very tight as the knee approaches the chest.

    When I try the lizard stretch (this one: https://marketing.gaia.com/wp-content/uploads/article-migration-image-1920x1080_lizard_pose_utthan_pristhasana-768x432.jpg) It almost feels like someone has put a small stone or ball on the inside of my right hip (when my eight leg is the forward leg) and I just cant move in to the stretch at all.

    I have been doing some hip flexor stretches, but these dont seem to have helped.

    Any guidance on stretches to try is most welcome! Thanks in advance.

    Confused about types of middle splits?

    Posted: 24 Apr 2020 10:50 PM PDT

    I'm really interested in getting my middle splits, but I'm confused about what the actual goal should be.

    In one goal, there's a person sitting up with their back straight like this.

    In the other goal, the person is bent over with their stomach to the ground like this.

    I honestly thought the first image, with the person sitting up, was the standard middle split until I looked up youtube tutorials, and saw that most people were aiming for the second bent-over pose.

    What should I be aiming for? Is the first pose sitting up less advanced than being bent-over? Does being able to do the second pose mean you can do the first?

    Thanks!

    Injured myself stretching, what's the quickest way to go back to stretching?

    Posted: 24 Apr 2020 07:00 PM PDT

    So I overstretched my hamstrings which is so incredibly tight that it causes pain. I believe I am past the icing stage, what should i do next? Strengthen? Gentle stretches? Get the blood flowing?

    Best stretches for front leg splits?

    Posted: 24 Apr 2020 08:52 AM PDT

    I've been working on my splits for a while now and I'm really close to getting on the floor. The only problem I have is that I can't straighten my front leg. My front knee stays bent when I try to go into splits. Any advice?

    Lateral tilt during hip flexor stretches

    Posted: 24 Apr 2020 10:51 AM PDT

    Hello everyone, I am currently looking to try and achieve my front splits and I have learned quite a bit about proper form. I have been making sure that my hips are squared in order to achieve a 'true' front split. I have a question about hip flexor stretches, the one where you are kneeling on the floor and you push your hips forward and downwards. I was wondering if it is normal to have a bit of a lateral tilt when kneeling. It seems like the hip of the leg that is up hikes higher than the one on the leg that I am stretching. Is this normal or do I have to correct this?

    I know that one of my legs is slightly longer than the other if that helps in any way.
