Running Series Video 12: Hip Hinge

The hip hinge is a fundamental movement pattern crucial for runners as it enhances hip mobility and strength, allowing for more powerful strides. By promoting proper biomechanics, the hip hinge helps runners engage their glutes and hamstrings effectively, which are essential for propulsion and stability. Additionally, mastering the hip hinge can reduce the risk of lower back injuries and improve overall running efficiency, leading to better performance and endurance during runs.

In this video Athletic Therapist Michelle Meckling will demonstrate the hip hinge along with different variations to challenge your balance, core and posterior chain.
