STRONG TO THE FINISH

Want a hip mobility routine that can help you stay strong to the end of your run? Look no further...

- 

Part of the pliability Running Hub, this mobility flow has been created specifically for runners who want to move better, recover faster, and stay injury-free. Running demands both strength and fluidity from the hips, but the repetitive impact of each stride can often lead to tight hip flexors, overworked glutes, and restricted range of motion, all of which can limit performance and increase the risk of strain. This session targets the muscles and connective tissues around the hips through a combination of dynamic and static stretches. It's designed to restore balance, improve mobility, and relieve post-run tightness, helping you maintain stride efficiency and overall running comfort. Whether used pre- or post-run, this routine fits seamlessly into your training plan to keep you running strong.

THE HALF FRONT SPLIT

This pose helps to calm your mind, whilst improving the range of motion within your hips. It elongates the spine, whilst stretching your lower back, legs, and hamstrings. Hold this pose for two minutes, making sure you breathe deeply in between each movement.

Start from your hands and knees

Bring your right leg forward between your hands and place your heel on the ground with your toes pointing up

Shift your bottom back so your right leg is as straight as possible but not so far as to sit on your left heel

Lean your upper body toward your right leg and let your head hang heavy as you relax through your neck and upper back
