When hip flexors get tight from too much sitting, they can start pulling the pelvis forward - creating extra arch in the lower back and making the belly push outward.

The hip flexors are a powerful muscle that have connections to the groin & even the front of the lumbar spine vertebrae! They're responsible for flexing the hip and driving the knee up & forward and compensating for weak hip flexors can cause problems up & down the kinetic chain

When you have pain in your lower back, it's because the muscles are too tight and it's pinching the nerves.

"Leg raises are the best ab exercise!" Leg raises are a hip flexor exercise that happens to involve your abs as stabilizers. Your abs don't create the movement. Your iliopsoas does. The abs are just trying to prevent your lower back from hyperextending while your hip flexors do all the actual work. Want proof? Do leg raises until failure. Then try to do a crunch. Your abs are fine. Your hip flexors are cooked. That burning sensation in your lower abs? That's your hip flexors screaming, not your abs growing. If you want to actually train abs, do movements where the abs are the prime mover: Like crunches.

🚨Most people don't realize that pelvic alignment directly affects hip width, leg shape, and even how your lower back feels. These moves help correct the pelvis from the root and improve your overall posture.✅

Lower back tightness often stems from stiff hips and limited spinal rotation. This movement takes your hips through a controlled rotation while your obliques guide the twist and your lower spine moves gently. As your spine rotates, the tight muscles around your lower back start to release, helping restore mobility and ease tension built up from sitting or inactivity. Simple movements like this can free up the hips, take pressure off the spine, and bring relief to your lower back. Go slowly and let the rotation happen naturally.

“If you’re doing a bench press do you want to start at the bottom and push up or start at the top and as soon as you get to the bottom push up? Same thing with the back hip…We don’t want to get stuck in a position, we want to flow and move through positions and get to it at the end when it’s actually time to deliver the force “🔥🤯 #the108way

Are your hip flexors always tight? Hips popping every time you move? Low back sore after lifts? Before you stretch again… try this 👀 Sometimes the issue isn’t “tight” hip flexors — it’s how your body is positioning and stabilizing. Save this so you don’t forget it & send it to someone struggling with tight hips, low back pain, or posture.

Your tight quads and hip flexors aren’t the problem - they’re the symptom. Instead of stretching them constantly without long-term relief, let’s ask why they’re tight in the first place. Here’s what you need to know 👇

Stretching your tight Psoas and hip flexors only addresses the symptom - the subjective sensation of tightness. But it doesn’t fix why they’re tight in the first place. Here’s what you need to know for better results 👇

Tight hamstrings that don't respond to stretching are almost always a pelvic tilt problem. Your pelvis tilts forward, the hamstring attachment gets lengthened, and they contract to keep you upright. That's why the tightness never leaves. Fix the pelvis and the hamstrings finally relax
