The main hip problems for cyclists are caused by constant hip flexion while pedaling, meaning the hip never returns to a neutral or extended position. This position makes the hip flexors overwork and shorten while the glutes are under worked and consequently become weak.
When you are weak in a range of motion your body responds by tightening up to protect itself. When we strengthen these areas we allow them to become more mobile.
In this routine, from our six week Hip Function & Rehab program, we will work on opening up the hips and focus on ranges of motion opposite to cycling to counteract the hours we spend on the bike with our hips flexed. We will strengthen and lengthen the four groups of muscles involved in hip function including the front (hip flexors), the back (glutes), the inside (groin muscles or adductors), and the outside (glute medius & glute minimus).
