Why " static " stretching alone isn ' t the answer
Knowing you have tight hip flexors is one thing . Knowing how to fix your hip flexors is another challenge altogether .
If you trust so-called experts on YouTube and online , they ' ll have you believe it ' s simply a case of holding a few static stretches for a period of time to try and lengthen the muscle .

Or rolling around with a tennis ball stuck to your hip ( as if that will really make any difference ). It takes more than a tennis ball and foam roller to unlock your hip flexors … and doing it wrong could cause even MORE damage .
The reason few people manage to fix their hip flexors is simple . It ' s really a hard area to reach .
If you see how the psoas is attached within your body , it ' s buried deep inside your core making it tough to access . It ' s a hard muscle to find , let alone train .
So it ' s little wonder why trying to loosen it requires more than a simple static hip flexor stretch like the one below you ' ve probably tried before .
You ' ve probably found you ' re spending ( or wasting ) hours of your time stretching this way only to find it ' s having minimal effect .
