@drjacob_: A lot of you are dealing with hip issues. How do I know? Because you told me. This is the beginning of the hip mobility guide I am creating, and it starts with an understanding that the hips are more than just a joint that allows you to squat, walk, or lunge. They are the foundation for spinal mobility and overall movement efficiency. When the hips lose their ability to move freely, the body does not simply stop moving. Instead it finds another way to accomplish the task, often asking the spine, knees, or even the ankles to pick up the slack. That extra demand on surrounding areas may not feel like a big deal at first, but over time those compensations build into stiffness, muscle imbalances, and even pain that seems unrelated to the hips. Many people who struggle with low back tension, recurring knee irritation, or difficulty with daily activities are often experiencing the ripple effect of poor hip mobility without realizing it. Addressing hip mobility is not about being able to touch your toes or perform advanced stretches. It is about restoring the natural movement your body was designed to have. When the hips can rotate, flex, and extend the way they should, the spine is protected, movement becomes more efficient, and your body feels stronger and more capable in everyday life. This guide is the first step in giving you the tools to restore that foundation, protect your spine, and create lasting freedom in your movement.
