Excellent Glutes Strengthening & Hip Flexor Stretching Exercise for Running

This is an excellent glutes strengthening & hip flexor stretching exercise for running. It is not coincident that hip flexors tightness and hip extensors (glutes) weakness or inhibition and anterior pelvic tilt (increased arch in lower back) often exit together. These are very consistent with a specific movement pattern. Treating them as individual problems is not only time consuming but also ineffective because they are all related to habitual movement pattern.

Anyone regardless of their age or physical conditions CAN improve! You just have to learn how to re-train your movement, and that is what I share on my channel. I teach Feldenkrais based movement and how to apply it to daily activities

Movement is vital to your health. Improving your movement therefore means improving your health and life. 3 key things are: 1) Daily movement practice to improve movement quality (MOVE WELL) 2) Incorporate good movement into daily activities (MOVE WELL AND MORE) 3) Awareness and mindfulness of your movement and lifestyle (MINDFUL MOVEMENT)

Taro, just got to try this exercise with knee pads. It is a workout, but I felt the effect on my glutes right away, and boy are they ever the dormant bit of body in me. Thank you so much as usual and forever. And, that you know, you’re as sweet and helpful as 3 years ago, more thorough now, but short videos are encouraging too. You’ve reached a good middle ground. Bless you. m

I love how this looks easy but gets my heart beat up. I'm in my 40s and considered healthy and active. These moves are great

[mietonen]

Enjoyed - it's a good way to make also the short video's - it's easy to find 2-3 minute's time; right away! 🥰🥰

[mzox]

Ok! I will try but I have need issues on right side. Thanks

[stclaus]

great ! so simple and so powerful ! thank you

[kevinwalz]

I work in a factory and I do 12 hour shifts, I am a sanitation worker and I am walking for the whole 12 hours, can't wait to try this out and see if it makes a difference, thanks.

[jamesyancharas]

very good taro !!! another hit single !!!! very good lenght of video, i also recommend although it sounds counter-intuitive, to put the explaintion or helping the watcher understand the movement portion of the video(Which isnt in this one) at the end, to make it so people who dont have the time dont have to skip, and people that would like to know can skip. also make sure you make it known at the start that the explaintion is at the end ;) one love <3

Another excellent video! I am a runner and really appreciate this, and all of your work! 😍

[animallivesmatter]

Hey this looked easier than it is and really shows me how unbalanced I am that goes beyond being a little weaker on the side with the hip replacement. I have a hard time going slow on all exercises though

[marianl]

This is great to have to add to your other recent hip, glutes, psoas, knees, and walking vids...recent ones and older ones. i love them all...Seems like the best for better movement patterns and healing of any online. Thank you so much.

[nerocaesar]

Taro I really enjoyed this video. Do you have a video on good stretches for the glutes?

[luzarsacdetoro]

Top! Et que vous etes sympa: que c est agréable de vous voir sourire!

Harder than it looks! Im starting with some light support (holding lightly onto a nearby chair). Adding it into my hip strenthening routine. So glad you're doing this now. I have a labral tear that will not be surgically repaired so exercise is what gets me through. Appreciate you so much!

[rosenrot]

Hey! I will try it directly!
Thank you Taro👍🙋🏻‍♀️🍀

[donisa]

I literally cried seeing this exercise! 😭Thank you so much. I’ve been trying to strengthen my hips from a jet ski accident which resulted to a hip tilt ( R hip higher than L hip) This exercise will do wonders for me lol

[angelaagate]

As a runner I am always suffering from glute, TFL and hip pain. I do all sorts of strength training but problem persists. This tecnique looks really good. Hard to keep balance, but that just proves how weak my glutes are! I will keep working at it though.

[tin]

Is there a routine feldenkrais exercise before jogging?

[graceenstine]

Thank u for this video, super helpful

[susanareid]

Do you have a standing up version of this move? ( I have on bad knee to kneel down) thx. 👍

[misss]

Thank you for your videos. I love them. I have two questions: I want to learn splits, which videos would you recommend? I have stronger calves. I think, everything is just stuck in the area and just wants to flow- so there might be some tension at the ankles etc.. Which videos would you recommend?
