Guest waterwerty Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 These past weeks i have been noticing that the side of my hip is hurting. I think it may be because I am using the wrong muscles in developpes. I know I should be using my hamstring and butt muscle, but I cant seem to engage those. So, my question is how can i strech out the hip, and what can I do to try to engange those muscles. Should I try doing excersizes to strengthen them? Quote Link to comment
Mel Johnson Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 Myles, I would reserve judgment on whether you need to stretch the hip, but it certainly sound like you could use some rest for it. Remember, when you work a muscle, you are generally contracting it. When you stretch it, you...well, stretch it! Sounds more like fatigue than anything. Quote Link to comment
Guest Future Star Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 you can also try yoga. I know that some people say that yoga doesn't work for dancers because they are already so fexible(ha right! ) but it helps you find your core and then you can try and start working other muscles from there. It really works!!! Quote Link to comment
Mel Johnson Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 Remember this, though. Yoga is not primarily about the postures. It is about interior things that are not totally of the body. Quote Link to comment
