    Hi Michael,

    Hope the issue is solved. 

    If not I think you
    need to go back to iron_tiger’s post.  You have answered some of his
    questions but you have dismissed a lot as well.  It’s one thing for YOU
    yourself to have a look at your movement patterns, it’s another for a
    trained professional.  Additionally, if you’ve been trying the same
    thing with no results (ie. stretching external rotators and hip capsule)
    then you’re probably looking in the wrong area. 

    As many have
    said it’s very difficult to treat your condition without seeing you in
    person.  That includes myself.  However, to give you an idea of other
    areas to look at, consider this article

    http://deansomerset.com/side-plank-internal-rotation-question-answered/

    Specifically
    relating to the hip, this could be a centration issue where the body is
    resisting forces acting to alter the joint position of the hip,
    especially in a state where the glutes are less active than the
    hamstrings or low back in hip extension based movements. If the femoral
    head is consistently being pushed forward by the action of the
    hamstrings on the joint, the internal rotation function of the psoas,
    adductors, glutes as well as a bunch of others I can’t think of right
    now, will be kicked up to resist further forward glide, and will
    therefore reduce internal rotation through passive motion. – See more

    The cut and paste function doesn’t seem
    to be working for me but there is a lot more great information in
    there.  I don’t like to pick and choose things that could be wrong with
    your hip; like I said no one can really tell without examining you.  So
    the above example isn’t so much what could be wrong with your hip but
    more an example of the fact that the hip is a complex structure and you
    should really have a professional look at it for you.  If that fails
    then at least look beyond just the hip capsule, external and internal
    rotators; as mentioned in this article.

    Sorry for the double post and repeated cut and pastes in my replies, I’m having a lot of trouble editing my posts and cutting pasting.
