Remember the last time you were on the Jiu-Jitsu mats (if it’s been awhile maybe not – but we can try 🤣? Think of your last wrestle, technique or even drilling session.

Did you throw on a submission where the hips need to be elevated or manage to do a hip escape to get out of a bad position?

It’s no wonder the hips become tight as we ask them to do everything they can do when we are on the BJJ mats. From bridging to escaping to rolling to shrimping – everything they can do.

Try out these stretches that focus on stretching primarily the outer hips. These tend to become very tight as a result of all the hard work they do for us, from stabilizing when we walk to playing a massive role in movement on the BJJ mats.

Let us know how these stretches go 🤙

Kind Arthur pose is a great stretch for tight hips and is a nice yoga pose to try against a wall too. Great for beginners to yoga and people with tight psoas and quads. Tightness in the hip flexors can cause lower back pain too.

Tight Psoas can be linked to lower back pain and if you do jiu-jitsu, you know what lower back pain feels like.
We are all too used to waking up with a sore back after a few hard rounds of sparring the night before. The problem is we all get up and carry on with our day feeling sore and not dealing with the issue, but stretching and working on your mobility can help you get rid of that.
This stretch can help with some causes of lower back pain because when the hip flexors are tight it can be putting extra pressure on your lower back. The added hip mobility will benefit your jiu-jitsu too, giving you more movement and more options on the mats. Spend a few minutes on each side in this stretch and feel the benefits for yourself! If you don’t have a mat you can put your gi jacket under your knee.
