Often overlooked for hip external rotation exercises, hip internal rotation plays a big role in how runners absorb and control load. When we land we slightly internally rotate our hip to help with shock absorption. During midstance, the hip continues to internally rotate over the femur to maintain pelvic alignment as force moves through the leg. Lack of Hip IR can lead to excessive pronation, knee valgus, back pain, more upper body twisting, and extension of lumbar spine which can lead to injuri

⭐🦵 Training loaded hip internal rotation builds durable, efficient lower-extremity mechanics.🦵⭐ When we focus on hip IR under load, we’re building: ✅ Active hip internal rotation capacity of the stance limb. ✅ Gluteus medius deep hip rotator strength to control femoral motion. ✅ Neuromuscular coordination between the hip, knee, pelvis, and trunk. ✅ Single-leg stability and load management under progressively increasing demands. Why this matters: Hip internal rotation plays a key role in force

🔥Hip - Whip Timing🥎 Pitching: Hip Motion & Timing Internal rotation isn’t just an arm action - it’s a full-body sequence driven by ground force, hip rotation, and timing. The arm simply expresses the energy the lower half creates. The hips move through a controlled, dynamic opening→ resisting → closing sequence that allows the arm to whip past the body at maximum speed. 📣Some think, and teach, the hips to stay open at release - this is wrong, and dangerous. Pitchers look open at release becau

Challenge your hip internal rotation! . Internal rotation is a foundational movement for the hip joint - that means, when you don’t have good IR, you don’t have good hip mobility. . And when you don’t have hip mobility, people often see issues in your feet, knees, hips (obv), pelvic floor and even spine. . Hip IR is also a key for healthy walking and squatting! . So, let’s work on some IR! Try 3-5 of these, 5-15 second holds. Add ankle weights if you feel like you need extra AND have perfect tec

Hip Fundamentals: Internal Rotation 1/3, Internal rotation is one of the cornerstones of a well moving hip and is most notably done in the 90/90 base position. The 90/90 has pretty significant requirements for both IR and hip flexion, which can lead to people getting pinching/closing side restriction and poor quality training. There are other ways to train internal rotation besides within the 90/90 and this quadruped set up is just one alternative. Points of emphasis are stacking the pelvis over

✨ Midpelvis rotation meets functional release. ✨ Baby always rotates through the pelvic floor at the mid-pelvis. This isn’t just a possibility, it’s a physiological requirement for descent. It’s not like a basketball through a hoop, but a spiral 🌀 just like the spirals we see all around us in nature. (Fibonacci sequence, anyone?) Using a hip shift (placing a pillow, folded blanket, or block under one knee) brings that hip into internal rotation, which does two powerful things: 1️⃣ Addresses asy

Internal Rotation of the hips is my preferred "gather/load" with the lower half, but HOW you teach it is really important and its NOT an absolute. Using external cues like "Show the Pitcher your pocket" and "Turn your belly button to the catcher" are much more effective than talking about "getting into your rear hip" or even talking about the hips/pelvis. Make sure the shoulders stay "somewhat" square is really important as well. The farther the shoulders turn in the more we lose vision of the p
