    Kaitlin,

    I smashed my high hamstring/adductor origin site in my glute area and noticed a difference after that was completed. Im going to work down stream to the knee next, because i have tenderness there as well. My next question is what is the best mobilization for the front of my hip/groin area because i saw that is the best spot to mobilize in order to reach the short adductors. Only other thing I’ve noticed is when i stretch them, either using the frog pose, or a exaggerated kneeling position i have a good amount of pain in them that feels different then when i stretch any other area. Just curious what that could mean. Thank you for your time and help 🙂

    I assumed you wanted them out as far as possible for the best position. And I smash my glutes often and do my best on the adductors. I can do the banded stretch and really don’t get anything crazy feeling from it. I can tell my left hip is better then my right but I just feel like it’s medial hamstring and adductor that is causing my problem. That’s where i feel insane amounts of tension as I get into my squat and the lower I get the worst it gets

    Hi Kaitlin,
    Thank you for your response, unfortunately I do not have a coach that is able to watch me because I workout alone at home. I have used the voodoo band on my groin and high hamstring before and it seems to make it looser but yet I still can only drive my knees out so far. It’s like they just come to a stop all at once and this is when I feel all the tension in my groin. I do my very best not to over extend at the start of my squat by setting my hips, abs, and screwing my feet into the ground. I do banded hamstring flossing almost on a daily basis to try to warm them up and loosen any tension. If you have any other suggestions I would love the help, and could even send a video of myself squatting if you would prefer that.

    Thank you for your time and advice.
