In this video, I combine two of my favorite and most effective hip mobility techniques: Hip CARs with a mobilization using a band.

If you’ve checked out any of my hip videos, you would have most likely stumbled across hip CARs (controlled articular rotations). These are essentially an exercise consisting of a very specific type of hip circle that I use for a warm-up, mobility, and general hip health.

However, you may sometime get pinch points (painful parts of the movement) in the joint.

I have used “hip mobilizations” in previous videos where I use a monster band or a belt to help perform a “joint mobilization” which allows for improved space in the joint and results in more usable space, decreased pain, and more motion.

This exercise is a “mobilization with movement,” and it’s one of the most effective ways to get a joint both moving and feeling better.

Check out the video with one of the absolute best and “bang-for-your-buck” hip exercises that I have utilized to help my hips feel EVEN better.

The 90-90 position is extremely useful and beneficial for hip mobility, and specifically rotation.

Once you are able to get into this position and get into some stretches and dynamic movements, you will notice the benefits.

This position is also beneficial for its variability. One specific exercise from the 90-90 are hovers.

In this video, I take you through a knee hinge hover exercise for some increased challenge for improved hip rotation.

I like to do 2 sets of 5-10 repetitions.

This is a sequence that I learned from the Functional Range Conditioning seminar and Kinstretch instruction from Functional Anatomy Seminars which I use with my clients on a regular basis.
