    Tight hips? Give this drill a try! Lateral side Tight hips?

Give this drill a try!

Lateral side step overs are a great way to open up your hips and address stiffness, pinching, and low back pain.

More often than not we move forwards and backwards and neglect training side to side in the frontal plane. 

Start with 20 (10 each side) and focus on keeping your core tight without rounding your back. 

Throw this into your warm up before running, agility training, or lifting. For the best results, mix 10-20 reps into every couple of hours during the day that you’re sitting.
