Until you address the pelvic alignment and gripping pattern, every exercise feeds the same compensation cycle. The exercise is not the problem. The order is.Should I stop doing glute bridges and clamshells if my hip still hurts?Not forever, but yes for now. These exercises reinforce the gripping pattern when done before your pelvis position and deep rotator tension are addressed. Once your body can access the right muscles, the same exercises start working again.Why are my hip muscles tight and weak at the same time?Constant gripping makes a muscle tight, but a muscle that never relaxes can not produce real strength. So it stays sore, irritated, and even tighter when you try to strengthen it on top of that holding pattern.📱 RESOURCESWebinar Registration: https://ptmaarit.com/registerWebsite: https://ptmaarit.com🔔 If you're dealing with chronic hip pain and ready to find real solutions that work, hit subscribe.
