    OMG I was doing the side leg lifts for glute major and feeling excited because 1. it wasn't aggravating my pain and 2. it was activating my glute for the first time in ages, and then there was a big rumble like a rock slide as my SI joint realigned! This is a miracle for me! I feel like a new person... 😭 THANKYOU SO MUCH!

    You're the best and I thank you grom the bottom of my heart . Greetings from a 64 years old woman from Belgium. It's Incredibles how your video's have alrrady helped me after my back surgery with many complications die to atrophied muscels. I have been many physical therapists in real life and on internet .. no one helped me as much as you. Thanks again it has been lifesaving.

    Great information! I’m hoping to see improvement on my next run with this; the exercises to strengthen other leg muscles seem especially helpful for my situation. Thanks for explaining things so clearly.

I've had this weakness & pain since around 2013 and it's 2020 now. 7 years! I'll try some of these movements and let you know. No money to get PT right now, so I have to figure it out myself.

    Finally! I've been dealing with TFL pain for 2.5 months now, and all my attempts to rehab my hip have seemed to make it worse. Now I realize that a lot of my rehab exercises have been working the TFL, which is the last thing I should be doing if my pain is a result of my TFL being overworked ( which I strongly suspect is the case, because I don't feel much pain in the morning, but after a long day of walking ( as I was doing on vacation last week ) it hurts like all hell . ). Until I found this video and your blog post, nobody had shown me ( including an ortho doc I visited ) how to do rehab exercise that would exercise the other muscles in my hip while putting minimum strain on the TFL.

    I came across your TFL assessment and stretches. I have had two total hip replacements and a right knee in the past four years (two hips within past 15 months). I have been doing Pilates and exercises trying to get to my best and you are the first coach/movement professional that make this so clear. I can see that I continue to have muscle spasms in the TFL area of my right hip (replaced first). This will help tremendously. Thank you.

    This video helped me a lot. I was thinking about doing injection a week ago... My hip flexor has been a nightmare for the last month (I am impatient when it comes to get back to football or tennis practice). My physio is amazing, he spotted on the second session that it was coming from TFL rather than sartorius or Rec Fem. I have then used a combination of his treatment and this video. After 2 or 3 days of hard work, I have removed 80/90% of the pain (I was struggling to wear my trousers) and I have played tennis 2 days ago without any issue, it feels really good. Thanks a lot for the great explanation. I guess the main things I have learn from this video are: 1) isolating the part needing a work out, 2) strengthening shouldn't always come as a second phase after stretching, they should be done hand in hand (when possible and done correctly). Great content!

    I'd just like to say, thanks. I'm an older jiujitsu athlete and I've basically had to retire from my sport because of pain in my TFL. I thought, at first, it was my psoas; then, I thought it was my IT. But after doing a fair amount of the first and second steps you demonstrated, I now know fairly confidently that it's my TLF. Feel noticeable relief almost instantly.

  • @ShermSC

    I've suffered with hip and ITB pain for years. Many doctors and physical therapists have misdiagnosed the problem. After seeing two different PTs and months of physical therapy, the last highly rated orthopedic surgeon I went to told me just to take over the counter pain killers and live with the pain. They all missed the point. This is the single best video I've seen on the subject. Starting today, I will follow your advice and protocol. Many, many thanks Eric for putting this together.

I kept telling everyone its the muscle in her and pointing, they always avoided it, last week one said it maybe your tfl. so i researched cause the exercises they gave me are the same, bridges ect, even my yoga practice not enough to move my hip joint away. and i found these exercises this morning tried and it felt a huge huge difference straight away I can actually feel the activation as you said. thankyou so much I've stretch bands at my work ThanX

    I aggravated this muscle playing too much golf without allowing time to recover in between rounds. It gets activated when I follow through the ball shifting my weight to my lead leg and twisting my hip toward my target.
    I got through all the exercises up until the one toward the end where you slide up and down the wall. That exercise really highlighted my pain so I had to take a break. Hopefully rest, ice and these exercises when tolerable will help.

    This is a gem of a video and all that I needed. Would have saved months of being lost had I found this video earlier. Thank you so much. I was doing most of those exercises already but didn't notice I was still using momentum and activating TFL when I should have actually activated my glutes. Right now, it is really hard to even feel the muscle, like it's a part of me but I can't reach it and that's the cause of a stinging IT band. I am hopeful I'll heal.

    I have spent so long trying to address this issue with my TFL. I had no idea you could hit the glute max in that position and it felt great. I was always wondering why toes out with my deadlift and squat would cause weakness and pain in my TFL causing loss of power.

    Amazing. I have not been able to play baseball in weeks and im so sad. I couldnt even run and it felt like it was going into my pelvic floor but i kept telling the specialists it felt like it was my femur joint. Now i know i had internal rotation issues and this helped so much! My glute meds are pretty strong but my max is not and also my hip flexors are super tight to so im trying to figure that out but they do feel weak and tight so now its all coming together almost!

    Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I know i hurt myself and that the tfl is involved. I could feel when the glutes were working v tfl. I actually feel like there's hope. I've had this pain for 4 months. It was bad at first then it reduced and just kept creeping around. I have been searching muscular anatomy for so long. Now I just have to start.

    About 3 weeks ago, during a Golf tournament on the 10th hole, I hit a chip shot, and a pain hit my right hip and lower back/upper right leg, so hard that I ended up on my knees. After a few stretches, I was able to keep going, but I could only hit full shots. If I tried to hit a chip or long put, that pain would come back. I went to the Chiropractor several times since then but the pain keeps going. Today, I went for a visit and was better able to explain to him where the pain seemed to be originating, and he said that sounds like the TFL. So we did some work on it and after a few minutes, I felt relief during full Golf swing (yes I took a club into the Dr.s office). We knew then what to focus on. Reading your Precision Movement site and the document you emailed me, has really opened my eyes to the issue. I haven't been able to play any serious golf or practice since that first time the pain hit during the tournament because the pain is so intense, but I'm going to get started on all of these steps so I can get back to playing Golf again. I have been working from home for 13 years and sit a lot. I now have a standing desk and hopefully once I get rid of this pain, it won't come back. If you have a video that gives me a good few exercises that that I can do before a golf round, please let me know. This is some great information. I'll come back and keep you updated on progress. Thanks!

    I quit taekwondo because every time I lifted my leg I would have a sharp pain on the outside of my knee. Also it hurts in my hip when I bend my knee towards my body and I have very limited external rotation. I thought I had multiple injuries and even though I quit 3 years ago I would suffer pain if I do some movements (even very slowly) Watching this video showed me a lot of tips to train my legs. Hopefully I would go back stronger. Thank you!

After reading your comments I am looking forward to trying these exercises and following on with your other tfl videos. Thank you for posting this, even if it doesn't help me, thank you for posting and helping other people. Peace ✌

    Wow, like so many others commenting, all my efforts to deal with TFL have been counter-productive, I couldn't understand how everything I tried made it worse. Normal clamshells and side leg-lifts were the worst, now I understand more how to take the TFL out of the picture and properly work the right muscles. Thank you so much, great presentation.

      @@PrecisionMovementCoach To clarify, in breaking down the problem from structural limitation to activation & dissociation/functional integration, I finally realize why I've made no progress the last month, am stuck in structural limitation. What's the ideal path forward, focus just on structural limitation before moving on, or are these three sets of exercises overlapping per session/day? I have another question too, but not to bludgeon you ;^)

I just returned from a doctor visit, x-rays of hip look fine, but he's offering a shot in the hip joint. I supports my preference to give your method a good shake first, will see me in a month if I'm not way improved. I'm confident your approach will allow me to avoid that shot. Again, great work, Eric, good ole internet.

I think I screwed my TFL big time riding a bicycle; it's been agony through the left pelvis and leg and flank since February. the PTs I saw were so dismissive it made me feel crazy. "do clamshells" noooo! clamshells are so painful I literally can't walk for a week after! thanks for sharing your knowledge, you are saving lives

    Another amazing video! I now think I know what's been at issue for so many years. I've suffered from various glute issues for years, mostly in the med. I've actually found any open chain movements didn't do anything for my "functional integration". The pain would always present when walking. Soon as I started closed chain glute mid exercises - things dramatically improved in a week. I guess because the exercise actually functional integrates itself more. Athlean-X has a nice video on it and it's that closed chain exercise that worked so well for me.

It’s been making me have this uneven walk and I’ve felt so uncomfortable for the past few months as this has cuase me to have unbalanced or misalignment hips due to that muscle overworking but I tried a few of the exercises and already feel so much better, so I wanted to show my appreciations !!

    This video again is extremely helpful for me. I have already been practising you SI joint exercises regularly and crap walks etc. as they appear in the IT-Band and other videos, because I seem to have SI joint/IT-Band/GTP problems on my right side. As far as I get it, this is all connected with a weak/cramped up glute med muscle that doesn't fire up as supposed to so that other parts might compensate.
    Training and activating these glute muscles together with the SI exercises really seem to help with these issues, whereas stretching the glute med/piriformis only made it worse.
    But then I was so used to avoiding the painful spot when exercising and still compensating with surrounding muscles and joints instead which made my problems also worse.
    I get sore glute muscles but also very sore TFL muscles and with this protocol here I immediately became aware how overworked my TFL actually is (with the first exercise alone which feels awesome). And then when properly doing the integration exercises, specifically the wall squats, this little movement was so difficult to execute, initiating the movement from the glute muscles, but only on my painful right side - and much easier on my left.
    I then moved on to regular front squats and step ups which I know executed with much more "activated" glutes. Way harder but I think, this is also way better to get rid of my problem.
    I also found that Bulgarian split squats with a light resistance band are great as an integration exercise. Thank you!! I wasn't aware of how dysfunctional my movement patterns obviously were.
