    Low country boy,

    I have a similar pain is the psoas, especially high up. Worst while sitting, best while standing. All on the left side. What are your 2 go to Mobility drills to alleviate pain while sitting? I have a standing desk, but when I’m typing I need to sit sometimes.

    Something to think about.. Adductors act as hip flexors and extensors. I have the same problem. One of the things that help me is to mash my inner thighs and do hamstring floss. Adductor a make it hard to get good external rotation in the hip which help create room for hip flexors.

    Hey thanks for your comment. I can see how chest up being prioritized may have caused me to hyperextend out of the bottom. Kinda what I was looking for, another view.

    No matter how many times I hear it/ read it.. Screw your feet into the ground .. Feet straight! It always helps thanks!

    The best place to start is to have a solid understanding of human Anatomy and biomechanics.

    I get obsessed with mobility too.  So I try my best not too watch too many kstar videos.  I can spend hours doing mobility, but I love to workout too. I don’t have time for everything so I prioritize what I’m working on for that day.  Lots of overhead movements? external rotation, internal rotation mashing..  squatng and dead lifting a ton?  Hamstring floss, couch stretch, table pirformis stretch, inner thigh adductor roll

    I have a similar problem. My LEFT SIDE has a more pronounced anterior tilt.  From my posterior, when you view my body laterally, my left glute is elevated.  My observation is that my left leg is slightly longer than my right. I’m right handed, but I stand on my left side frequently and it is my stronger leg.  I’m guessing that some of my low back, hip flexor pain is due to over use of my left side when doing excessive intensive exercise.  My pain is completely on my left side (when aggravated). I did a bunch of light weight 135lbs back squats and  and noticed that my left spinal erectors tightened up quite a bit.  That was yesterday, but it is good today.  I look like I limp a lot.

    To help you with your question, I’ve found that rolling the adductors along with doing the hamstring floss has helped me manage this problem….allowing for some temporary relief in pain, though I’m not sure that that’s the solution to my problems long term.
