@getmomstrong: Spoiler alert: your hips aren’t usually the problem. The low ab hip click: It is mega common. And while alarming, know that it isn’t effing anything up. But here is what it does signal: 🫣Your hip flexors are trying to do the job of the deep core. This can cause compression. Snapping hip syndrome usually happens when a tendon slides over a bony part of the hip, most commonly the iliopsoas in the front or the IT band on the outside. It’s often related to muscle imbalances, tight hip flexors/TFL, or weak glutes and pelvic stabilizers that change how the hip moves. When your ribs flare and your pelvis, tips forward, your hip flexors yank your leg down, which can cause that popping or clicking feeling in the front of your hips. ✅Next time you’re trying core exercises like leg lowers, marches, or dead bugs (common diastasis recti rehab exercises), try this trick. 1️⃣Bring ribs down 2️⃣Tuck your pelvis a little posteriorly (you still want a small arch under your low back, just not a huge one like you probably have) 3️⃣exhale audibly as you lower your leg See if that helps. It also might be that you just aren’t quite ready for the variation of core work you are doing. Instead of leg lowers, try heel taps or marches. Instead of doing a full dead bug, try keeping your elbows and knees bent. Curious how many of you have (or had) snapping hip? With deep core work, you’ll notice it less and less! #lowabs #deepcore #diastasisrecti
