Four hip stretches for when you’ve been sitting down all day:
– whether you’re aware of the connection or not. Other problems caused by stiff hips include knee pain, tight glutes and tight hamstrings.
So to avoid racking up a long list of ailments stemming from a largely avoidable cause, try incorporating theseStart by kneeling on the floor with the rest of your body straight. Then pick up your left leg and place your foot on the floor in front of you, so the leg forms a 90 degree angle. Once you’re in position, you can start to slowly move your torso and knee forwards, keeping your hips pushed slightly forwards and your buttocks tucked in underneath.
If you struggle to kneel, you can vary this stretch by lifting the back knee off the floor. In this variation, your back leg should be straight out behind you and off the ground.For this pose you need to have good balance, so feel free to use a wall or chair if you need the extra support. From a standing position, bring your left heel up towards your glutes and hold it in your hand.
