I was in severe pain all weak and kept doing stretches to help my hip flexors/lower back. They worked for a brief period, but I woke up stiff as a board every morning. I finally got a decent night's sleep thanks to this video. It really has helped.
Wow! I've spent 5 years trying to resolve my latest low back / left hip issue, trying massage, then chiropractic, then PT. I tried your stretches and exercises yesterday - just half the recommended sets, because almost everything seems to make me worse - and got the most incredible improvement! Thank you so much! I'll be increasing the reps / sets and looking forward to a cure!
Im a designer who sits for hours every day and whilst i do a lot of Pilates and regularly stretch my hip flexors, this video is probably going to change my life! I will be doing these exercises religiously. It makes such sense that they are in fact ‘weak’ not ‘tight’.. thank you!
Me too, designer och the desk all day everyday. Though I play soccer ⚽️ I am so tight around my hips causing less range below my body thus easily get injuries during training.
Same here! As a designer who sits a whole hell of a lot I had my first work related injury with weakness in my spinal muscles. This looks really good for building up those muscles
if you're at a desk all day you need to be doing powerlifting, bodybuilding, crossfit (lol), or something else that will keep your body strong - martial arts is a good one. it's not enough to strengthen one muscle group or just do some stretches / easy yoga also doesn't cut it.
Excellent! You've hit on one of the main areas affecting senior's mobility issues. The psoas is a significant issue, but the combination of hip muscles taken together are responsible for the quality of our walking gait and balance. Seniors very often decrease overall activity levels and aslo do a lot of sitting. Strengthen this hip group...you see a better gait and better balance, not just the pain... that's the best way to prevent falls To your point, the stretching and chair yoga just doesn't get the job done. BTW, a separate YT channel just for senior issues would be a great idea for you.
Wow! Thanks for that awesome comment and validation of our methods. We really appreciate the suggestion and check out this video in the meantime: ruclips.net/video/p8ld780VC8Y/видео.htmlsi=qXGh_XX3QhIOQdhH - Coach Joshua, Team PM
This helped my partner 10 fold,had injection in her groin that didnt help one bit,followed this guy and he gave her 5 excercises,this has changed her for the better,so would highly recommend this man..
What do youmean? Exercises dont even start till half way through the video. Really drawn out and over explained prior to any demonstrations. Not to the point at all.
Great stuff. As a former elite cyclist, my quads were over-developed and my glutes and surrounding muscles became weaker. This led to a great deal of discomfort and pain in the psoas area. Nothing has helped except doing the Yoga Tree Pose (going side to side with arms in a T) and working to strengthen my glutes. I will try these exercises to work on the other muscles. Thank you, Sir.
Spent many months trying to stretch mine out with nothing notable improving so I'm extreamly grateful that you have put these videos up, I've been doing your tennis elbow exercises too. ❤

Have just discovered this - after 6 months of stretching and yoga to "fix" the psoas without progress, looking forward to trying this out ... first round was challenging already! Thanks!
Eye-opening commentary about the dangers of kinetic stretching and aggravating the injury you’re trying to heal! Thank you so much for this video …. And others!
I have had a problem with back pain in the lumbar region for a long time. What you're conveying is something different from anything I've seen before. I did it for the first time and the feeling of looseness in the hips and the restoration of muscle feeling in these places is fantastic. I hope after some time it will be even better. Thank you very much.
Great video! I suffered a spinal cord injury and spent 6 months in a recliner recovering while receiving minimal PT. When starting to walk again I discovered my hip flexors/iliopsoas was tight but weak. No amount of stretching with aggressive PT helped. I have had improvement within 2 weeks of starting this workout. And, surprisingly my balance improved which I had believed to be neurological. I had no choice about the recliner rest but wow, a recliner can do a lot of damage to one's body. Thank you for taking the time invested creating this informational video.
You are so welcome and thanks for trying it out. Keep us posted on your progress and let us know if you need any more advice :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Been upping my running / lifting for an upcoming marathon. Had extreme psoas tightness the last week. Did the pose at 13:20 and got instant 90% relief the rest of the day. Was like something was just "caught" and that released it back to where it should go. Insane. Favorited this video.
I did these movements and felt muscles activate I havent felt since the went DEAD in high school cross country. THANK YOU!! This already feels so much better and stable than just stretching. Going to work it into a weekly routine and see if I experience improvement.
You've just given me a pain free Christmas after a year of back problems - Ive had physio, massages - but this was clearly my problem. Received almost immediate relief. I run regularly and sit a lot for work - what to say other than thank you so much!
Adding an update to my previous comment. I continued with what I learned here from Coach Eric about ilio-psoas muscles, then eventually went to a physical therapist locally. My hunch that other muscles were involved was accurate. Twice a week guided sessions led me to a complete hip and lower back mobility workout that I do every morning before getting out of bed. Maintenance to keep the positive results. Also 3 x weekly strength workouts on my own at a gym. Pain is gone, overall leg/hip strength up 200%. Also specific focus on improving walking gait made a huge difference. Even did foot muscle exercises, also recommended by Eric. Huge difference. multivariate issues and it all comes together with dropping 25 lbs of excess weight without even trying. Because I can stand tall, and walk/run easily with no pain avoidance habits. Think muscle groups, not muscles. And while I am still doing minimal stretching, at no point in previous 3 years did my Doctors advice to just stretch the psoas muscle provide any longterm relief. Bottom line... at 74, I've come face-to-face with the reality of accelerated sarcopenia after crossing into my 70's. Strength training is vital. Keep moving, or you lose it fast.
Amazing work. Thanks for including us in your investigative framework. Please email me at vip@pmcoach.pro so that I can follow up with you. Talk to you soon :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
You are an angel in disguise dude.....bless you ... When the world is almost sick with greed....you are a beacon of hope to all those who suffer in pain❤
I had pain in my lower back for over 3 years. In daily life it did not actively cause pain but the moment a tried to do an L-sit or some hamstring stretches It hurt like hell and made me avoid certain essential training movements just because of that. I didn't know why untill today. You Sir, you have made my life much easier
Wow! Thanks so much for trying it out, commenting, and for the support. We really appreciate it. Let us know if you ever have any more questions :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
I'm wondering if the iliopsoas are inhibited by the hamstrings when doing good mornings (or deadlifts)...if so then the spinal erectors could get too much load. Honestly I don't have any sensation of the iliopsoas muscles to tell if they're being activated or not, is that normal?
@@billsemenoff They are likely not inhibited and you can learn to activate and integrate them by working on these exercises more. What you are experiencing is normal especially if you have not tried anything like this before :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Glad I found this! My hips needed to be replaced for 13 years before having insurance to cover. I was on a cane for several years before both replaced in 2017. Just 2days in with this set of exercises and I feel way stronger! Hopefully I can pop up on my surfboard quickly again! Mahalo!
Thank you! I had a right hip replacement 19 months ago and so many of the exercises and discussion focus on strengthening and "activating" my right glute. I've been regularly doing pilates and barre after months of PT but I'm still having issues with limping on the right side when I walk too much and "overdo" it. I thought I needed to stretch out my psoas and roll more which provides temporary relief but I've been frustrated that after all this time I still haven't resolved the weaker right side. I tried your psoas exercises and I can barely hold my leg up in some of the positions so can see that my problem is weak psoas not tight psoas. I plan to work on these exercises over the next 3-4 weeks as suggested. This is a huge help.
ive had lower back issues for 3 years now, and after a years worth of chiropractic treatment, yoga, and exercise, it never left me. I would stretch out my psoas multiple times daily for a few hours of relief, but damn, just 1 day of this, and im already feeling SO MUCH IMPROVEMENT. Thank you!
Been doing this twice a week for the past 3 months, now down to whenever i feel any psoas discomfort If i am particularly not moving much, so maybe once every couple of weeks. Its been great really!
I spent so many years stretching my hip flexors/glutes to no avail. Been doing more psoas release movements and I can’t believe the difference. I has psoas pop or snap in my right hip and did not know what it was until now. Although the noise/pop wasn’t painful, it scared me. I thought something was wrong with my hip. I’m so relieved after finding these types of channels. I can actually jog a little now and walk 4-5 miles without having so much tightness in my glute/hip area!
@@iversonwtls8887 I stopped “stretching” my hip flexors and started doing hip flexor “exercises” about a year ago. However, I felt instant relief after doing these psoas focused movements .
After 2 years or more of pain and sitting a lot with burnout and stress (4 physios later) this man has identified for me through this video what could be the cause of my problem I have ridden horses most of my life but stopped 8 years ago had really strong leg / pelvic muscles going to absolute waste sitting around!! I am going to give these exercises a real go as so much pain… what a great find this video thank you thank you thank you❤️
Wow! Thanks for stopping by to try it out and commenting. We really appreciate you sharing your story. Keep us posted on your progress :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Spent months in pain and didn’t understand why. Thanks so much, felt relief immediately after the standing slumpy psoas. The cue to suck the knee in was crucial!
We are also happy that you found us. Your homework is to practice the exericses 2 - 3 times weekly for the next 4 weeks. You owe us a progress report at that time. That should light a fire under you. Talk to you soon :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Whew! I'm working so hard on my "grandma posture" and it turns out I've lost a lot of my basic core power. Also starring: incredibly tight hip flexors which I've aggravated with what are some apparently unwise attemts at strengthening -the first of which is demonstrated right here in the second demo.And, cycling every day without the lengthening work? Don't do it! I haven't been here for awhile - am way overdue! This is exactly what I need right now. Thank you for your expertise, your very thorough demonstrations and explanations and for your remarkable patience and generosity.🌿
Have had pain in my groin that came on suddenly two years ago. PT told me to do that stretch. 😤 Just running through his exercises just once, the soreness and pain disappeared and I could actually take a step up stairs with my left foot with no pain or feeling of 9:34 instability. Got me so excited and hopeful. Can’t wait to see what doing all the reps several times a week for the next month will do. Maybe I can actually do some hiking this summer. 🙏
Wow incredible! I felt the tension and the pain released just after one set of these exercises! 😮 going to try it out like you said for a few weeks. My hip flexors have been inflamed since I started practicing lots of meditations and mantra singing 😅six hours in a lotus position will do it 😊 hopefully with these exercises I go on even longer. Thank you so much for this video!!! Lots of love to all and happy flexers 😊❤❤❤🙏
Oh my goodness! I followed along with you in doing each of the exercises; and immediately afterwards, I felt a huge difference! I will definitely being doing these exercises 3 times a week for the next month or so. Thanks!
Started doing these today, after previously doing a lot of other exercises from other videos with stretches, etc. Right away I feel this is it, this is what I needed. I feel better right away.
Coach E thank you so much for your videos. You helped me progressively heal some of my hip/knee imbalances due to a lot of sitting but also overuse through dance. The service you're providing here is invaluable ❤
This program has been a game changer for me. I've been dealing with sore hip flexors for a few years. They would get particularly sore after skate skiing, biking, and some other activities. Naturally, I was inclined to do hip flexor stretches all the time but they never seemed to help. I've been doing this program now for about 8 weeks and I have had no hip flexor discomfort at all for the last 5+ weeks. I've gone from always being aware of my hip flexors to totally forgetting about them.
Yusss! That is so great to read. We really appreciate you taking the time to try it out and reporting back. Thanks for your support and discipline :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Fantastic video on hip snapping. After just applying you exercises one time, I felt much less snapping and greater end range strength. I found that by eccentrically extending and then holding my leg in the end range position one inch above the floor and then moving the leg up very slowly just a few inches up helps even more with building end range strength.
Really good, easy to do at home. I've just had a hip replacement 3 months ago and I am a cyclist. My Physio said that I have a tight Psoas so I'm looking for a range of exercises to help it release and to strengthen. Now I've a go at all of them and the only i really struggled with was the one where you lie on the ground, it did give me a great deal of pain but I'll work on it. Thank you
Thanks for trying them out! You should stop doing any exericse that causes pain unless you can modify it in order to do it pain-free no matter how small the movement is. Modifications include going slower and making the movement smaller. Let us know if you have any more quesitons :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Hey friend- I had a hip surgery about a year ago and have been struggling with my psoas. How have you felt doing these? I'm in so much pain right now I'm afraid to try it haha
I've been having so many hip issues, especially in my right hip, I can fill the weakness in most of the muscles and have spent a lot of time figuring out hip anatomy to figure out what exactly is hurting me. My plan is to do this routine, your hip rotation exercises, and some adduction/abduction exercises this month, hopefully build some strength in all of the muscles of the hip. Thanks for the video, am hoping this bring some pain relief from my hips and knees
Thanks, just did this with you for the first time. I have been having issues with my lower back for a few years, this year being the worst. Started hearing about my Psoas from chiro and masseuse, but wasn't making long-term improvements. Today was a 3/5 bad day with a lot of tightness. When I first laid down to start my back was very tight and vetting back up I had small, short sensations if pain. I was being very careful. After working through all of these I feel better - I look forward to doing it for a month and seeing what kind of results I get!
This is incredibly informative. Thank you! I will be doing this to see if I can have some progress. I was in p.t for 5 months and doing some of the very standard stretches and I never saw as much progress as I wanted. I am very optimistic about your approach!
Thank you very much for sharing! It would be great if you could record the whole routine or just a longer version with a minimum number of reps for each side. I find follow-along videos easier to use and more motivating. They also make more time for re-explaining, pointing out common mistakes... 🙏🙏🙏
Only just started these exercises and can feel a difference already. I like the more permanent fixes like this, rather than than the bandaid solutions that only work for a little while
Can’t wait to try this as well as your other exercises. I have been trying for years to address issues from the hip area down only to have things flare once again! I was told to STRETCH more and it’s just age. So thankful I found you! Really appreciate your explanations of the science and physiology application behind the exercises. Also how you incorporate functional fitness. Everything you said makes so much sense. Looking forward to eventually getting stronger and perhaps, in time, being able to jog once again.
I love your videos and the shoulder impingement , "no more shoulders down and back" blew my mind! I have shared it with everyone I know. Since you don't recommend stretching, what do you do after a workout? Like a spin class? Is there a video that has a comprehensive "non stretch" stuff to do after a workout? Thanks for everything you do. 🤩
Thanks for following along. You don't necessarily need to do anything after a workout. However, the ROM Coach app has great mobility routines that you can work on at any time: www.precisionmovement.coach/rom-yt - Coach Joshua, Team PM
This makes so much sense....I sit all day, every day. This is probably why something as simple as lifting my leg to put on my pants is difficult to accomplish even though I am able to lift all kinds of weight in the gym.
omg, I am in my 50's and quite sedentary, overweight BMI 29, don't ask me why.... :-) I had this pain under the right shoulder blade for like 25 years, since I was a student. Nagging, annoying, worst after lifting something. I thought it's a herniated something or some nerve pinched. Felt better with pressure or massage like a roller but was not disappearing.... Lately I had this fullness sensation in the area of the liver, and was planning a medical visit soon. Then, within past few days, my SI joint on the right was so painful that I was limping every morning while holding my R flank..... GUESS WHAT? They all went away yesterday with ONE SESSION of your exercise and one ibuprofen.... well maybe 5% is there, BUT my 30 year of shoulder pain went away..... unbelievable and THANKS!!!! I still can't believe this! --- I am saved 🙂
Hello, first of all, I wanted to thank you for your video. It's awesome of you to help all of us like this. I also wanted to ask you something. I am a young athlete that started suffering psoas pain after a game 7 months ago, and have since then been unable to do any sports because I feel a lot of pain. I am trying these exercises, as rest doesn't seem to help. However, when doing them, I don't feel like my injured psoas is working, as I can't lift my leg up completely, and I don't feel a slight burn when holding the position as I feel it when doing it with my healthy leg. I don't feel pain either, so I don't know if I'm getting my psoas working. Is that normal? Should I keep doing the exercises? Thank you very much!
Hi and thanks for trying it out. It may take a while for you to develop the sense that you are activating the muscle properly. The beauty of the exercise is that it works even if you can't feel it. Keep working on it and you will improve with time and practice :) - Coach Joshua, Team PM
Hey Eric thanks so much for putting together this video, I was having hip flexor issues that seemed to get worse with stretching and traditional strengthening exercises, so stumbled upon your video and immediately felt relief and now walking with out tightness and pain. Amazing thanks again.

The slumpy psoas one seems to offer some relief but that side lying hip extension just feels painful and awkward for me. Thanks for offering these for those of us who have tried a lot of different PT exercises and are still having symptoms.
Thank you for all the lessens. I had a hip replacement 2 years ago and I have a real problem with the psoas, and these lessons are what I need, tried physical therapy, no help. You are the answer😱 thank you so much, we’ll done. Haven Morrison
Interesting. This standing glute contraction with hip IR is what we in Tai Chi Chuan call "screwing the feet into the ground". It's essential to protect your knees from being strained the wrong way and to optimize the flow of energy, which requires perfect alignment of all joints. Tai Chi Chuan is another name for "precision movement" 🙂
Thank you. Doing this once today has helped a sore psoas. But ill continue to gain the strength I've lost. This video was exactly what i was looking for. Thank you
Yup im on it . Can you do this everyday? I've lost 68 lbs in the last 5 months and am trying to get healthy . My hips give me most of the pain and the lower back pinches . Thanks for the tips . I'll watch everyday and do the work!!!
You are better than a medical doctor. I did balancing on one leg with the other bent but being on my toes, it helped loosen the fascia. Thanks, gentleman!
I hadn't realized this at the time, but I believe a pulled my psoas about a week ago. I kept trying to stretch for relief, but I would feel tense and a low-grade type of pain throughout the day whenever I was inactive throughout the day (sitting or laying usually). I started doing the exercises and just the blood flow alone goes a long way towards the tenseness and pain throughout the day. I actually have been wearing ankle weights while working from home, and just hammering some knee raises throughout the day.
I am so scared to never being able to boulder again due to continuous hip muscle pain and injury. Overstretched my hip flexors and groin for such a long period of time after sessions, because i thought I could 'stretch the pain away' haha. Now I'm on painkillers. These exercises give me hope for bouldering again soon! Starting tomorrow with these. 😊 Thank you!

Just started watching this. This is great. The issue i have, i think, is either psoas syndrome or psoas tendinopathy, also affecting the iliac, and/or it's gludeal syndrome or gludeal tendonitis. I know i have high hamstring tendinopathy and have been working through it. Its on the injured side (right). And then i made it worse and either it's my gludius medius, the illac-psoas, or a combo of both. Tendon and/or muscle. Before even watching this video, what i know works is, because ive beat this before, is fixing my anterior pelvic tilt and focus on deep breathing into my core, in my stomach, to lengthen and strengthen my psoas. The psoas works opposite the glutes. If you have weak hamstrings (long tight and weak) and weak glutes that are not firing, that will make the hip flexors that much tighter (short and weak) including TFL and illac-psoas. So the answer i found is fix anterior pelvic tilt and breath into your core, making your core and glute max, med, and min strong and that should relief pressure on the psoas-illac. But im curious to see what more i can learn as i watch this video. Its been a long, long, long road.

Thank you! It is a bit more challenging if you don’t have the equipment. Is there any other way to improvise the last exercise if you don’t have the band and that particularly set up? In the first exercise you need secure free weights. I have the correct ball. Can this hip flexor injury be caused by overuse from running as I was diagnosed with hip bursitis but the pain is in my groin. Great vid. Mark
Yo, Mark! The exercise works without the band so don't stress it. You can also use a pair of strechy pants or your mom's pantyhose. Check this video out too: ruclips.net/video/os9-sapsszI/видео.htmlsi=ZOEek1lWHdKBKhX1 It can definitely be caused by that type of overuse.

I have had a problem with back pain in the lumbar region for a long time. What you're conveying is something different from anything I've seen before. I did it for the first time and the feeling of looseness in the hips and the restoration of muscle feeling in these places is fantastic.
I hope after some time it will be even better. Thank you very much.
Yes!
Thanks for trying it out and for sharing your results :)
Amazing!
@rafatomaszewski3781
Did it get any better?
Great video! I suffered a spinal cord injury and spent 6 months in a recliner recovering while receiving minimal PT. When starting to walk again I discovered my hip flexors/iliopsoas was tight but weak. No amount of stretching with aggressive PT helped. I have had improvement within 2 weeks of starting this workout. And, surprisingly my balance improved which I had believed to be neurological. I had no choice about the recliner rest but wow, a recliner can do a lot of damage to one's body. Thank you for taking the time invested creating this informational video.
You are so welcome and thanks for trying it out.

Been upping my running / lifting for an upcoming marathon. Had extreme psoas tightness the last week. Did the pose at 13:20 and got instant 90% relief the rest of the day. Was like something was just "caught" and that released it back to where it should go. Insane. Favorited this video.
Amazing!
Thanks for trying it out and commenting :)

I did these movements and felt muscles activate I havent felt since the went DEAD in high school cross country. THANK YOU!! This already feels so much better and stable than just stretching. Going to work it into a weekly routine and see if I experience improvement.
That is awesome.
We are so happy that the exercises helped :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
You've just given me a pain free Christmas after a year of back problems - Ive had physio, massages - but this was clearly my problem. Received almost immediate relief. I run regularly and sit a lot for work - what to say other than thank you so much!
Happy to help!
Adding an update to my previous comment. I continued with what I learned here from Coach Eric about ilio-psoas muscles, then eventually went to a physical therapist locally. My hunch that other muscles were involved was accurate. Twice a week guided sessions led me to a complete hip and lower back mobility workout that I do every morning before getting out of bed. Maintenance to keep the positive results. Also 3 x weekly strength workouts on my own at a gym. Pain is gone, overall leg/hip strength up 200%. Also specific focus on improving walking gait made a huge difference. Even did foot muscle exercises, also recommended by Eric. Huge difference. multivariate issues and it all comes together with dropping 25 lbs of excess weight without even trying. Because I can stand tall, and walk/run easily with no pain avoidance habits. Think muscle groups, not muscles. And while I am still doing minimal stretching, at no point in previous 3 years did my Doctors advice to just stretch the psoas muscle provide any longterm relief. Bottom line... at 74, I've come face-to-face with the reality of accelerated sarcopenia after crossing into my 70's. Strength training is vital. Keep moving, or you lose it fast.
Amazing work.

You are an angel in disguise dude.....bless you ...
When the world is almost sick with greed....you are a beacon of hope to all those who suffer in pain❤
Much appreciated :)
I had pain in my lower back for over 3 years. In daily life it did not actively cause pain but the moment a tried to do an L-sit or some hamstring stretches It hurt like hell and made me avoid certain essential training movements just because of that.
I didn't know why untill today.
You Sir, you have made my life much easier
Wow!
Thanks so much for trying it out, commenting, and for the support. We really appreciate it.
Let us know if you ever have any more questions :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
This guy is the best for info of any body issues you have,all great info and definatly a caring guy!
Agree!
Thanks :)
I'm wondering if the iliopsoas are inhibited by the hamstrings when doing good mornings (or deadlifts)...if so then the spinal erectors could get too much load. Honestly I don't have any sensation of the iliopsoas muscles to tell if they're being activated or not, is that normal?
@@billsemenoff They are likely not inhibited and you can learn to activate and integrate them by working on these exercises more. What you are experiencing is normal especially if you have not tried anything like this before :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
So agree !
Yes, I sit a lot (too much) and my left psoas is quite weak. I tried these exercises, and I can feel several other weak/sore muscles as well, spot on!
Thanks for trying it out and sorry for the late reply.
How are you now?
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
I am much better, thanks so much!@@PrecisionMovementCoach
Glad I found this! My hips needed to be replaced for 13 years before having insurance to cover. I was on a cane for several years before both replaced in 2017. Just 2days in with this set of exercises and I feel way stronger! Hopefully I can pop up on my surfboard quickly again! Mahalo!
Hands down the best video on RUclips for psoas pain. You are a true G.
Wow, thank you!
Thank you! I had a right hip replacement 19 months ago and so many of the exercises and discussion focus on strengthening and "activating" my right glute. I've been regularly doing pilates and barre after months of PT but I'm still having issues with limping on the right side when I walk too much and "overdo" it. I thought I needed to stretch out my psoas and roll more which provides temporary relief but I've been frustrated that after all this time I still haven't resolved the weaker right side. I tried your psoas exercises and I can barely hold my leg up in some of the positions so can see that my problem is weak psoas not tight psoas. I plan to work on these exercises over the next 3-4 weeks as suggested. This is a huge help.
So happy it helps.

How are you doing now?
ive had lower back issues for 3 years now, and after a years worth of chiropractic treatment, yoga, and exercise, it never left me. I would stretch out my psoas multiple times daily for a few hours of relief, but damn, just 1 day of this, and im already feeling SO MUCH IMPROVEMENT. Thank you!
Yay!
Thanks so much for trying it out and for letting us know about it.
We really appreciate your comment :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
Pls update, what are your results?
Been doing this twice a week for the past 3 months, now down to whenever i feel any psoas discomfort If i am particularly not moving much, so maybe once every couple of weeks. Its been great really!
I spent so many years stretching my hip flexors/glutes to no avail. Been doing more psoas release movements and I can’t believe the difference. I has psoas pop or snap in my right hip and did not know what it was until now. Although the noise/pop wasn’t painful, it scared me. I thought something was wrong with my hip. I’m so relieved after finding these types of channels. I can actually jog a little now and walk 4-5 miles without having so much tightness in my glute/hip area!
Yay!
Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
We are so happy that the exercises helped :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
@marianneporter26 hi, did the popping go away?
@@iversonwtls8887 By doing the exercises like the ones in this video. My psoas no longer is so tight that it causes a popping noise.
@@marianneporter26 thank you for the reply! for how long have you practiced these exercises?
@@iversonwtls8887 I stopped “stretching” my hip flexors and started doing hip flexor “exercises” about a year ago. However, I felt instant relief after doing these psoas focused movements .
And we need people like you. We need each other. Thank you for being there for us.
You are welcome :)

After 2 years or more of pain and sitting a lot with burnout and stress (4 physios later) this man has identified for me through this video what could be the cause of my problem I have ridden horses most of my life but stopped 8 years ago had really strong leg / pelvic muscles going to absolute waste sitting around!! I am going to give these exercises a real go as so much pain… what a great find this video thank you thank you thank you❤️

Spent months in pain and didn’t understand why. Thanks so much, felt relief immediately after the standing slumpy psoas. The cue to suck the knee in was crucial!
Ouch...that is too long!

could have never thought that weak hip flexors could be an issue but after triple checking what you said here it is true
I genuinely love this guy
:)
So glad I happened on your site ! Now,the challenge is to ACTUALLY DO THE EXERCISES
on a REGULAR BASIS !
We are also happy that you found us.
Your homework is to practice the exericses 2 - 3 times weekly for the next 4 weeks. You owe us a progress report at that time.
That should light a fire under you.
Talk to you soon :)

Whew! I'm working so hard on my "grandma posture" and it turns out I've lost a lot of my basic core power. Also starring: incredibly tight hip flexors which I've aggravated with what are some apparently unwise attemts at strengthening -the first of which is demonstrated right here in the second demo.And, cycling every day without the lengthening work? Don't do it! I haven't been here for awhile - am way overdue! This is exactly what I need right now. Thank you for your expertise, your very thorough demonstrations and explanations and for your remarkable patience and generosity.🌿
You are welcome :)
Have had pain in my groin that came on suddenly two years ago. PT told me to do that stretch. 😤 Just running through his exercises just once, the soreness and pain disappeared and I could actually take a step up stairs with my left foot with no pain or feeling of 9:34 instability. Got me so excited and hopeful. Can’t wait to see what doing all the reps several times a week for the next month will do. Maybe I can actually do some hiking this summer. 🙏
Yay!
Such great progress.
Keep it up :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
Wow incredible! I felt the tension and the pain released just after one set of these exercises! 😮 going to try it out like you said for a few weeks. My hip flexors have been inflamed since I started practicing lots of meditations and mantra singing 😅six hours in a lotus position will do it 😊 hopefully with these exercises I go on even longer. Thank you so much for this video!!! Lots of love to all and happy flexers 😊❤❤❤🙏
You're so welcome!
Thank you Eric! Day Two subtle psoas activations gave immediate relief; I’ll be doing this routine every morning now. Doc Eric, you ROCK.
You are welcome and thanks so much for following along.
Keep us posted on your progress :)

Oh my goodness! I followed along with you in doing each of the exercises; and immediately afterwards, I felt a huge difference! I will definitely being doing these exercises 3 times a week for the next month or so. Thanks!
Thanks for trying it out and we are so happy that it helped :)
Hey, how is it going?
Did you stick with it? Did it continue to work/ improve?
Started doing these today, after previously doing a lot of other exercises from other videos with stretches, etc.
Right away I feel this is it, this is what I needed. I feel better right away.
This is absolutely amazing!! So grateful to you. I have learnt so much more in this video about strengthening the area. You're the best
You are so welcome :)
Thank you for being you!The world needs more kind people like you.🙏🙏🙏
:)
Coach E thank you so much for your videos. You helped me progressively heal some of my hip/knee imbalances due to a lot of sitting but also overuse through dance.
The service you're providing here is invaluable ❤
You are welcome :)
This program has been a game changer for me. I've been dealing with sore hip flexors for a few years. They would get particularly sore after skate skiing, biking, and some other activities. Naturally, I was inclined to do hip flexor stretches all the time but they never seemed to help. I've been doing this program now for about 8 weeks and I have had no hip flexor discomfort at all for the last 5+ weeks. I've gone from always being aware of my hip flexors to totally forgetting about them.
Yusss!
That is so great to read. We really appreciate you taking the time to try it out and reporting back.
Thanks for your support and discipline :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
Fantastic video on hip snapping. After just applying you exercises one time, I felt much less snapping and greater end range strength. I found that by eccentrically extending and then holding my leg in the end range position one inch above the floor and then moving the leg up very slowly just a few inches up helps even more with building end range strength.
That is amazing!
So happy that it helped :)
Really good, easy to do at home. I've just had a hip replacement 3 months ago and I am a cyclist. My Physio said that I have a tight Psoas so I'm looking for a range of exercises to help it release and to strengthen. Now I've a go at all of them and the only i really struggled with was the one where you lie on the ground, it did give me a great deal of pain but I'll work on it. Thank you
Thanks for trying them out!
You should stop doing any exericse that causes pain unless you can modify it in order to do it pain-free no matter how small the movement is. Modifications include going slower and making the movement smaller.
Let us know if you have any more quesitons :)

Hey friend- I had a hip surgery about a year ago and have been struggling with my psoas. How have you felt doing these? I'm in so much pain right now I'm afraid to try it haha
I've been having so many hip issues, especially in my right hip, I can fill the weakness in most of the muscles and have spent a lot of time figuring out hip anatomy to figure out what exactly is hurting me.
My plan is to do this routine, your hip rotation exercises, and some adduction/abduction exercises this month, hopefully build some strength in all of the muscles of the hip.
Thanks for the video, am hoping this bring some pain relief from my hips and knees

Thanks, just did this with you for the first time. I have been having issues with my lower back for a few years, this year being the worst. Started hearing about my Psoas from chiro and masseuse, but wasn't making long-term improvements. Today was a 3/5 bad day with a lot of tightness. When I first laid down to start my back was very tight and vetting back up I had small, short sensations if pain. I was being very careful. After working through all of these I feel better - I look forward to doing it for a month and seeing what kind of results I get!
So great to read about your experiences with the exercises.
How are you now?
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
This is incredibly informative. Thank you! I will be doing this to see if I can have some progress. I was in p.t for 5 months and doing some of the very standard stretches and I never saw as much progress as I wanted. I am very optimistic about your approach!
You got this!
Very good teaching pace and delivery
Thank you very much for sharing!
It would be great if you could record the whole routine or just a longer version with a minimum number of reps for each side. I find follow-along videos easier to use and more motivating. They also make more time for re-explaining, pointing out common mistakes...
🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for the idea!
Only just started these exercises and can feel a difference already. I like the more permanent fixes like this, rather than than the bandaid solutions that only work for a little while
Amazing!
Thanks for trying them out and keep us posted on your progress :)
- Coach Joshua, Team PM
Can’t wait to try this as well as your other exercises. I have been trying for years to address issues from the hip area down only to have things flare once again! I was told to STRETCH more and it’s just age. So thankful I found you! Really appreciate your explanations of the science and physiology application behind the exercises. Also how you incorporate functional fitness. Everything you said makes so much sense. Looking forward to eventually getting stronger and perhaps, in time, being able to jog once again.

Thanks a ton. This info got closer to an answer than any other stretch really has.
Happy to help!
I love your videos and the shoulder impingement , "no more shoulders down and back" blew my mind! I have shared it with everyone I know. Since you don't recommend stretching, what do you do after a workout? Like a spin class? Is there a video that has a comprehensive "non stretch" stuff to do after a workout? Thanks for everything you do. 🤩
Thanks for following along.
You don't necessarily need to do anything after a workout.

This makes so much sense....I sit all day, every day. This is probably why something as simple as lifting my leg to put on my pants is difficult to accomplish even though I am able to lift all kinds of weight in the gym.
So true.
Woohooo I’m first !! 🎉😂
:)
omg, I am in my 50's and quite sedentary, overweight BMI 29, don't ask me why.... :-) I had this pain under the right shoulder blade for like 25 years, since I was a student. Nagging, annoying, worst after lifting something. I thought it's a herniated something or some nerve pinched. Felt better with pressure or massage like a roller but was not disappearing.... Lately I had this fullness sensation in the area of the liver, and was planning a medical visit soon. Then, within past few days, my SI joint on the right was so painful that I was limping every morning while holding my R flank..... GUESS WHAT? They all went away yesterday with ONE SESSION of your exercise and one ibuprofen.... well maybe 5% is there, BUT my 30 year of shoulder pain went away..... unbelievable and THANKS!!!! I still can't believe this! --- I am saved 🙂
Yay!

Hello, first of all, I wanted to thank you for your video. It's awesome of you to help all of us like this. I also wanted to ask you something. I am a young athlete that started suffering psoas pain after a game 7 months ago, and have since then been unable to do any sports because I feel a lot of pain. I am trying these exercises, as rest doesn't seem to help. However, when doing them, I don't feel like my injured psoas is working, as I can't lift my leg up completely, and I don't feel a slight burn when holding the position as I feel it when doing it with my healthy leg. I don't feel pain either, so I don't know if I'm getting my psoas working. Is that normal? Should I keep doing the exercises? Thank you very much!
Hi and thanks for trying it out.
It may take a while for you to develop the sense that you are activating the muscle properly. The beauty of the exercise is that it works even if you can't feel it.
Keep working on it and you will improve with time and practice :)

The slumpy psoas one seems to offer some relief but that side lying hip extension just feels painful and awkward for me. Thanks for offering these for those of us who have tried a lot of different PT exercises and are still having symptoms.

Interesting. This standing glute contraction with hip IR is what we in Tai Chi Chuan call "screwing the feet into the ground". It's essential to protect your knees from being strained the wrong way and to optimize the flow of energy, which requires perfect alignment of all joints. Tai Chi Chuan is another name for "precision movement" 🙂
That is not a coincidence and it's cool that you figured that out :)

You are better than a medical doctor. I did balancing on one leg with the other bent but being on my toes, it helped loosen the fascia. Thanks, gentleman!
Wow! Thanks so much for that :)
I hadn't realized this at the time, but I believe a pulled my psoas about a week ago. I kept trying to stretch for relief, but I would feel tense and a low-grade type of pain throughout the day whenever I was inactive throughout the day (sitting or laying usually). I started doing the exercises and just the blood flow alone goes a long way towards the tenseness and pain throughout the day. I actually have been wearing ankle weights while working from home, and just hammering some knee raises throughout the day.
Nice work! It's great that the exercises helped :)
been battling this all my life. Prolly lost an opportunity to be a kickboxing champ because of it. I still want to fix it! Thanks!

I am so scared to never being able to boulder again due to continuous hip muscle pain and injury. Overstretched my hip flexors and groin for such a long period of time after sessions, because i thought I could 'stretch the pain away' haha. Now I'm on painkillers.

You are welcome and thanks for watching :)
You helped me fix my snapping hip syndrome in my left leg!
No, we need more people and channels like you! Thank YOU!
Thanks :)
Just started watching this. This is great. The issue i have, i think, is either psoas syndrome or psoas tendinopathy, also affecting the iliac, and/or it's gludeal syndrome or gludeal tendonitis. I know i have high hamstring tendinopathy and have been working through it. Its on the injured side (right). And then i made it worse and either it's my gludius medius, the illac-psoas, or a combo of both. Tendon and/or muscle.
Before even watching this video, what i know works is, because ive beat this before, is fixing my anterior pelvic tilt and focus on deep breathing into my core, in my stomach, to lengthen and strengthen my psoas. The psoas works opposite the glutes. If you have weak hamstrings (long tight and weak) and weak glutes that are not firing, that will make the hip flexors that much tighter (short and weak) including TFL and illac-psoas. So the answer i found is fix anterior pelvic tilt and breath into your core, making your core and glute max, med, and min strong and that should relief pressure on the psoas-illac. But im curious to see what more i can learn as i watch this video. Its been a long, long, long road.
Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts.

Thank you!
It is a bit more challenging if you don’t have the equipment. Is there any other way to improvise the last exercise if you don’t have the band and that particularly set up?
In the first exercise you need secure free weights. I have the correct ball.
Can this hip flexor injury be caused by overuse from running as I was diagnosed with hip bursitis but the pain is in my groin.
Great vid.
Mark
Yo, Mark!
The exercise works without the band so don't stress it. You can also use a pair of strechy pants or your mom's pantyhose.
Check this video out too:
ruclips.net/video/os9-sapsszI/видео.htmlsi=ZOEek1lWHdKBKhX1
It can definitely be caused by that type of overuse.
