HYROX athletes: if your hip flexors always feel “tight,” stretching may not be the only answer. 🏃‍♂️🏋️

Your hip flexors play a key role in driving the leg forward during the run, stabilizing the pelvis under fatigue, and transitioning efficiently between stations. But after thousands of meters of running, sled pushes, lunges, and wall balls, they also need the strength and endurance to keep up with the demands of race day.

Sometimes what feels like tightness is really a capacity issue. Mobility matters, but so do strength, control, and building resilience through progressive training.

Don’t just ask, “How do I stretch it?” Ask, “How do I prepare it for the demands of HYROX?”

Your discs aren’t bad.

You probably don’t need surgery for your back pain.

You probably DO need control and strength. And confidence. And the knowledge that YOU are strong and resilient and capable of taking charge of your symptoms.

Here’s to looking at things a little differently 🥂

There are levels to the rehab process. Of course we want you to be out of pain, but being out of pain with daily life things is much different than being able stay pain free while working out, or playing a sport.

That is our goal at Affiliate! So even when the “pain” is gone sometimes the work is not over. Your rehab should take you up to the loads and positions required of your sport.

You have to be very strong to run without gathering chronic injuries along your way.

Here is one simple fact that gives us some idea what our lower body goes through while running …thousands of steps!!

This is a 300lb sled pull…and that’s not even enough for my body weight. It’s taken me years to get here, but even just starting to load your lower body can make a huge difference in your bodies resilience.

Fitness-forward rehab this good doesn’t happen by accident.

We’ve been doing this before it was cool. PT OGs, one might say. And we ain’t going nowhere ✌️♥️💪

Kettlebell marches are one of my favorite exercises for runners 🏃‍♂️💥

By loading the body asymmetrically and slowing things down, marches challenge:
�• Core stability�• Glute strength�• Single-leg balance�• Pelvic control�• Postural endurance

All things that help improve running efficiency and reduce energy leaks as fatigue sets in. Bonus: they’re highly specific to the demands of running gait and to a lot of the deficits that we pick up on a running analysis . 🔑

Simple exercise. Huge carryover. 💪

If you hurt your back bending over, and you’re afraid to bend over, or even more, lift weights while bent over, I’m here to tell you, you’re never going to feel comfortable lifting weight bent over, if you don’t progressively, strategically, load in the bent over position!!! 🤯

If you went to a provider who told you to just not train in the bent over position ever again….Hello! I’m here to help! 🤝

Let’s get you back to the gym, training in the positions you want, with the weight you want! 🏋️‍♀️
