Should I Improve My Hip Flexibility?
Posted on by Kathleen Habschmidt PT, DPT
Hip flexibility refers to the ability of the muscles surrounding your hips to lengthen and move through their full range of motion. The main muscles include hip flexors, hamstrings, glutes, and inner thigh muscles. Tightness in these areas can show up as stiffness, discomfort, or reduced mobility during activities like walking, squatting, getting up from a chair, or climbing stairs.
