Hip Mobility Drill For Jiu-Jitsu: Part 2

90-90 Leg Lifts

Begin in the 90-90 Position.
Move into your end-range by moving your chest towards the leg you are focused on, and then slightly move away to allow for some available movement of the hips.

Keep a braced and stiff upper torso and focus on actively lifting the front leg 5-10 reps of 5 seconds. Then perform actively lifting the back leg 5-10 reps for 5 second holds.

This will help close the gap between passive hip motion (the ability to move your leg without using your muscles) and active hip motion (using your muscles to move the hip through or to a specific motion).

The more active control you have over your hips, the better function and capability, and ultimately control you will have over your joint.

This video clip was taken from the update to my Grappling RX – Optimized Hips Course. You can find the full video included in the course at https://www.grapplingrx.com/optimizedhips.

This basic movement flow is called a “Bear Sit” to “90-90” position and is a quick and simple hip opener for tight hips and muscles.

As a dynamic movement, you are not only stretching the hips and surrounding muscles but you are engaging the muscles and getting the areas primed for movement. It literally takes a few minutes to notice a change in the mobility of your hips.

These are movements that are from the Kinstretch course that I took and is a joint training system that I am not only trained in but use regularly to improve my own hip health.

I will be offering in-person and on-line classes coming up soon.

Hip tightness and pinching in the hip joint can be a limiting factor in movements such as squatting or when getting into specific jiu-jitsu positions as well.

I started using the “Bear Crawl” position with a band to address this issue. This technique is great because it addresses the hip joint on multiple levels.

First the joint moves through its available range actively, then the mobilization band is used to focus on the hip capsule addressing the “joint glide,” as well as to create additional space in the hip joint to give clearance from the tissue pinching up into the capsule, and third the muscles surrounding the hip are activated allowing the muscles to fire and wake up which provides for a more complete and thorough technique that actually works well and quickly.

Here is a link to some monster bands that work pretty well https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NAPYKRG/ref=as_sl_pc_qf_sp_asin_til?tag=jiujitsupt-20&linkCode=w00&linkId=c65b1520d9eaf4232acf670de775d708&creativeASIN=B00NAPYKRG

With training jiu-jitsu, our hips frequently get compressed or we have have been tensing up the hips and hamstring muscles while training which can lead to tightness, stiffness, and even pain.

In this video, I demonstrate a great way to address tight hips and hamstrings.

This technique uses two “Monster Bands” which are thick rubber bands. We start with a hip mobilization to stretch and loosen up the tight hips. This mobilization is great at working out any tightness or pinching at the front of the hips.

Then you will incorporate the second resistance band and bring the leg up to elicit a hamstring stretch. This is a more complete and more effective stretch that not only loosens up the hips but addresses tight hamstrings as well.

You can hold for 10-15 seconds for 3-5 repetitions if you are using this technique as a warm up prior to training or increase the hold times to 30-60 seconds for a cool-down or post-training stretch.

In the video I use a “Rogue Monster Band” but you can find similar items on Amazon.com
