You guys are the best! I get better help from you than any PT or Doc I've visited in person! My hip has been bothering me for a long time and these exercises are the first ones that have actually started to make me feel better and have increased my flexibility!

[@walkquietly1556]

Thank you both 😀

[@ChaiLatte13]

My hip is already feeling better after finding your stretches. Thank you! I can only get to my elbows on the back extension, so will be keeping up with that for sure.

[@lindseyarnold-hubbard1340]

First time watching your videos; and I LOVE the intro song! Solid, medically sound advice without a million "disclaimers". Great work, guys. You've definitely gained a subscriber.

[@pattyanndoyle502]

Very good advice glad I found these guys, as they say not all exercises and stretches they show you are for you but they have one or two to help. After braking my ankle and being in a wheelchair for 4 months, my hips were one of he worst problems of getting myself up and walking again. Some of these exercises and stretches really helped me, I will be sharing this on my page. Thanks guys!

[@AR_86]

A lot of these are classic yoga moves I've recognized through practices. I guess I need to get back into yoga

[@felozybeadscomedy7450]

You guys are really famous. Brad and Pop thanks a lot I had hip and buttock pain. And now it gone like very fast I practice you suggestions on this video and it worked right away. Loads of thanks Sirs.

Thank you! Helpful video!

[@LJInnes]

you guys are so awesome

[@kmlund42]

I love you guys!!! I have osteoporosis with a 6 level thoracic failed fusion and some recent SI pain. I do postural restoration for pt which is helping me from hunching over and will be getting a pain pump for the horrific IP pain I have been experiencing with my spine issues. You are both fun and give me ideas to stay as mobil and fit as I possibly can for as long as I can. Thank you for your good humor and ideas. I will try these:)

[@jessfreakinortega]

Thank you for your significant help all the way down here in Missouri! I've suffered from a "tilted"pelvis for years, diagnosed as both lateral and anterior, but had been unable to continue treatments, causing symptoms I had NO clue were related, until you saved me! I've had no options for pelvic health for a few years now, causing my posture to become included. Your exact posture matches my wedding picture during vows from August this year. Thank you for reminding me how serious these things can become, explaining in ways I both understood and could test at home, these have alleviated SO much pressure! Pelvis is so out of line, every time I stand up straight from 90° angle, it pops on the "higher/raised" side. Every time. Then my posture in the wedding photo, wow. I'm definitely going to be watching more, and scheduling a professional visit locally (I'm The typical no Dr. for myself, care for anyone else type person) Until I realize I could be causing serious, permanent injury and discomfort further down the road. I had no clue about muscle vs nerve pain either, so I feel highly confident going into an appointment with already being diagnosed, and now being able to suggest other links/symptoms to this one fixable issue. I really can't thank you enough, and greatly appreciate the time, effort, and care put into videos simply for the public. Wish you weren't in Minnesota! I'd love to meet y'all! So thankful for your help, seriously blessed to stumble across! Physical Therapy From Minnesota to Missouri, better than any previous therapists! Thank you!

[@joannajudd5118]

Bob and Brad on loan from God I tried the Shoulder pain exercises and in 3 days my pain was gone! I never dreamed it would work and thought I really didnt want to live with the pain I was having. I came to your site in desperation . I am a religious person so you were an answer to my plea for help.Thankyou from the bottom of my Heart. Now I have hip pain and this is the first place I came.

[@xxdubstep_gamingxx9390]

thank you so much

[@darmasri5917]

You guys are great.

[@irenechapman1191]

I need that stretching, awesome good idea, well done

[@amberbillis6024]

Good video! Helpful.

[@almasuerte4347]

Thanks

[@mattfoley4749]

These guys are a rare find...

[@Jenny_bell_key]

Your videos are so interesting!! Your hip exercise videos have helped me a lot-I had twins three months ago and my hips are still weak and sore. I've been using some of your exercises and stretches and am noticing improvement.

[@woihjsd]

Goodness. What a great find! I was looking for answers to why one of my hips pops when I open my knee to a 45* angle and lift it up. Doesn't matter if I'm on my back, standing, or squatting; at a very specific angle, it always pops. It isn't painful but I want to figure out how to stop it before I end up hurting myself over time. I'm going to incorporate more abduction exercises in my fitness program. This area is weak for me and I didn't realize it would have such an impact on my hips. Thanks for all these hip related videos! You guys have great chemistry and are really fun to watch :)

[@suziekeuls7582]

thank you for you videos!! keep making them :) Greets from the Netherlands

[@minacockburn4445]

Love you guys ,,thanks for the great advice 👍

[@Dylan-dw3on]

[@rosemarysmith2015]

Love you guys you sure help me. I recommend to my friends too.

[@BobandBrad]

Thank you so much Rosemary!

[@carenburmeister5002]

Almost everyone of those stretches are also yoga postures. Good stuff!

[@mrithun15]

I don't really have pain. But my right hip does crack (it's a sound that comes out when I rotate my hips) very rarely. Hardly bothers me. But I think these just got rid of that for me. Feels much better to have more mobility in the hips. I'll definitely be adding this to my routine for atleast every other day. Thanks guys. You're awesome.

[@cc34945]

I'm looking for your video about use of cane when you have hip bursitis. I love your videos and share with friends. Thank you.

[@1queenbean]

SUBSCRIBED!! :))) I was hit by a drunk driver a year ago. I'm 45, HAPPY TO BE ALIVE! I'm so excited to see humor in your videos! I've not been able to exercise or walk up a flight of stairs like I used to. Thank you for making physical therapy fun!! LOVE the carpel tunnel syndrome vids fun too! KEEP GOING!! We are inspired by you both!!

[@biliew]

[@debbieotto131]

[@vlj9013]

I like their quotes.

[@johnharrington6122]

Bob & Brad, great exercises! I think I'm dealing w/ pseudo-sciatica ( p.s.) ,not sure,but these help.I am concerned however that there is no Bears memorabilia on shelf behind you! You will have to deal with them in 2019 and beyond!Thanks,John

[@clanreid2556]

Thx. A lot!👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@michellesweeney2642]

This was good. I am currently nursing a hip flexor overuse injury. Too much ab/core work. I am an old time runner who was recently found youtube yoga and pilates and got carried away with my floor work. Currently I am using anti-inflammatory, electric stim and ice. I have adjusted my ab/core work to using bent knees only and avoiding straight leg raises etc. Do you have a video that addresses core work without stressing hip flexors? You guys are great! thank you

[@samyamorris7047]

Man say!!! I needed this

[@FitnessMystic]

You guys are hilarious!!! Please keep making videos!

[@zerozero5027]

My hips pop sometimes. pops don't hurt - I find these exercises helpful I notice you have lime 3 videos of hip stretches and exercises all great thank you

[@user-de9df5ke9u]

Hello . you are really amazing thank for these videos . I was diagnosed with hip dislocation and scoliosis , does this video and these excercies are good for me ?

[@jeanetteharris9735]

I have a C-6 pinch. I'm trying your technique. Scheduled for an MRI next week to see what's really going on. Thanks

[@katherinerosemore274]

Im so impressed with their range. Im 30 yr old female and i cant do MOST of these. Granted i am pretty banged up from different things i feel i shud still be in a better place for my age. These guys are AMAZING. I WISH i could what they are doing!

[@plumeria66]

All knee exercises strength the hips and I do them along with stretching. My hip used to hurt walking uphill but after strengthening them, no more pain.

[@joycelyngray9027]

Great video. I will practice these. You two would make for a good @SaturdayNightLive skit.

[@MimMim-hs2rs]

Had the Ifuse performed two years and five months ago with a revision done six weeks later due to the fact that one of the rods pinched the nerves that exit my left leg. Huge mistake. I now have three rods fused to my pelvis and what I wouldn't do to have them removed. I live in pain twenty four hours a day seven days a week in my left leg and foot, a million times worse than the back pain itself which didn't go away either. Thank you so much for sharing these stretches, will be doing them first thing in the morning. I also subscribed to your page and will be watching more of your videos. Blessings to you and I love your sense of humor!

[@MimMim-hs2rs]

Thank you, just corrected the surgery I had performed. Thank you for wishing me well, I'm looking forward to the day I wake up one morning and the pain is gone. Hope my comment helps someone who reads it and is considering having it performed changes their mind. I wish I would have known more about these kinds of exercises before. Hopefully I will find a surgeon willing to remove them or at least try. Blessings and thank you!

[@jhonnetmari7042]

I have left hip pian for 2 days then i follow the 10 way stretch hip stop the pain.. Thanks for this video

[@TaiJ-Aird]

I subscribed because of the bromance.. I also learned some good stretches!!

[@fabrix199]

ikr, there's some weird synergy between these guys

[@melodyknighton9078]

That three days of Ibuprofen really worked. I have now gone off the Ibuprofen for 24 hours and I am still pain free. I did 600 mg a day. I continued to do your stretches and my normal work out during the three days.

[@flkajfdfrier7312]

I love your dynamic and that thumbnail 😳👀

[@joannaustin7200]

Why do my hips pop when I'm laying on the floor and try to raise my legs

[@Ferney1c]

There are several ways in yoga to stretch your hips - pigeon pose or using a strap. Are these good to use for hip pain? It's great that you are imparting some much information. Thank you.

[@rew061989]

Thank you guys. I really love your videos. I had hyperparathyroidism (i had an operation) Because of the hyperparathyroidism I'm suffering from osteoporosis (osteopenia). What exercises do you recommend for osteopenia? I really need some advice.

[@MrNeuroticRA]

OK, my serious comment. I slipped in a shower and hit my back and hip. For about 18 months my back and hip have been hurting and my doctors really don't recommend surgery. I have not done physical therapy well because of bilateral reconstructive foot surgery. This video is excellent therapy. I did the internal rotation test. I'm super tight on the problem side.

[@ChaiLatte13]

This helped me figure out exactly which movements are causing pain in my hips. Thank you. It's the hip abductor! I have been doing exercises for my glutes and legs and I must have hurt myself.

[@bronson1392]

Great, thanks where is the advanced link pls?

[@mrsmctier]

Oh dear! I can’t do the hip rotation at all. My knee starts screaming even with mild rotation. Could my knee issues be causing hip issues?

[@diamonddx95]

Is it advisable doing these 10 hip extension stretches if you've already had a hip and knee replacement?
