Should you STRETCH or STRENGTHEN Tight Hip Flexors!?

Often tight hip flexors need to be stretched, but it's also possible that hip flexor weakness can lead to tightness. A bit of a tough concept to wrap your head around initially. "WHAT? If some thing is tight it needs to be stretched!" Sometimes. A muscle can also be dysfunctional and feel tight as a result of weakness. Often a combination of muscle imbalances could be involved, paricularily if it's in the hips region. Regardless, if you go through these 2 tests you should be able to get a rough idea if your tightness is coming from actual short tight hip flexors, or hip flexor weakness. #hipflexorstretch #hipmobility #hipflexors #exercisescience
