80% of my training has become rehab. Thank you for all this free info 🙏

I might cry. I’ve been doing hip flexor stretches for 3 months trying to relieve the pain with no success. I tried the first hip impingement exercise with the band one time and did a deep squat with no pain for the first time since last year. Thank you so much!!!

[HoSeTM]

This video literally saves me from a lot of pain that I’ve been enduring for weeks. Thank you so so much

[tinosingh]

Been having hip pain for months and always though it was a hip flexor strain and finally now realised it was hip impingement. Did these exercises for 2 days and already has made a huge difference in my hip pain! Thank you so much!

[anonymous_end_user]

This was amazing. Went according to the symptoms he stated (impingement) and went through the treatment, worked great for me, no more hip pain. Thanks!

[bpnation]

I’ve been dealing with this for years. Even before i stopped playing football i could never run full speed because of the hip impingement. Just tried this and i already feel way better. You just saved my life. Thank you so much.

[hitsugayafanlife]

I think you just helped me figure out my hip pain that I've been dealing with off and on for years and years. It's a huge relief to finally understand what's wrong and how I can fix it. Words cannot express enough how thankful I am. Thank you so much for the work you do!

[marcopolo]

That hip airplane exercise has helped me significantly. Thank you for the knowledge 💪💯🤙🤙🤙

[tracymcinerney]

Finally I found clarity in an online video for the two differences between impingement and hip flexor strain. 👍👍

[gsgff]

Ive watched tons of videos on this issue, this one is straight forward comprehensive. I will start these exercises.

[Verakoltal]

Developed hip impingement from being sat down for too long whilst studying between workouts. This exercise has relieved it so much. Amazing content, thank you

[gavinmasterson]

Man I’ve been trying to figure out my hip for months, I may have both of these symptoms at this point— but I will try these. You really know your stuff, thank you for the work

[jamesbuxton]

I did something to the flexor muscles and I appreciate your exercise and stretch movement that enables me to improve my ability to walk better.Thank you.

[VANILLACRAM]

Thank you, you literally have a video for every single one of my problems and I’m ticking them off one by one.

BEST description and info on the web! You're awesome. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[ChanceDHarrisONE]

Thanks so much. Played sports fo3 years and have had so many issues with the hip flexors and a lot of fatigue in that area. Abs have been strong, but the groin area has been a constant problem when performing explosive movements, sprints, football, basketball. Thank you, this helps a lot.

[mrpaul]

Dang good help man! It was a muscular hip flexor strain for me and I know well why it happened to me in the first place lol. I just didn't know what my injury is called that's why I don't know what I should do. You end up getting in my for you page in youtube. So blessed. Thanks brother

[abrareelahi]

Aaron your videos are always worth waiting for. Thank you.

[calvinsmith]

I tried the golf ball for the hip flexor strain and it relieved so much of the pain and discomfort. Thanks so much. Please continue creating amazing content.

[kesh_r]

Thanks to this I’ve realized I have both! The flexor strain got better with soft tissue work/rest but the impingement continues to bother. Time to do those exercises
