All isokinetic values were statistically decreased in the FMS group when compared with the control group, except for the peak torques at angular velocity of 180°/s on flexion of the hip and extension of the ankle and the total work and average power on extension of the ankle. We did not...

Snapping hip is a condition where a snapping sensation or popping sound occurs at the hip during flexion and extension activities, like getting up from a chair. Generally speaking, snapping hip could be divided into two categories: medial (inside) snapping hip or lateral (outside) snapping hip...

First and foremost, if the muscles of the hamstrings are tight, they are more susceptible to tearing. No matter if you're an elite athlete, stay-at-home-mom or average Joe, a muscle tear in the back of your legs can take months to heal and recover from making life very challenging. ...

and the hip abductors (the muscles that draw the femur away from the midline of the body, also known as abduction, e.g. the glutes, piriformis, tensor fasciae latae (TFL)) Which movements use your hip flexors? 'Typically, movements that involve hip flexion and/or knee extension (straight...
For example, one study found athletes who did hip flexor exercises as part of their routine both improved their hip flexion strength by 12.2 percent and cut their run times by as much as 9 percent (6). Not to mention, strengthening those muscles can also improve range of motion, which is...

Your hips can generate amazing power, and everything from your joints to your muscles are critical in this juncture of the lower body. Hip flexion brings the legs and torso together while hip extension opposes this movement. Hip mobility also includes hip internal rotation, external rotation, ...
