Fix Your Hips

That pain you feel in your lower back or knee may have nothing to do with your lower back or knee. It may come from your hips.

Super-trainer Keith Scott writes that hip health is crucial for more than just your hips. And he has written a three-part series on how to make sure your hips are strong. (Get part 1, get part 2 and get part 3.)

I learned when I was training at Velocity Sports Performance the importance of healthy and mobile hips. We had to do a lot of hip exercises during our warmups and the result was that I was better able to perform exercises like squats.
