[@fredf7457]

I love it that you give the modified form for those who are not able to do the complete stretch.

[@drkristieennis]

I try to include all the things my patients, and myself, have needed help with:)

[@susanmiller2890]

All of these are helpful. Thanks for showing the different angles of how to do the exercises.

Recouping from ankle reconstructive surgery in Dec..still struggling (73 yrs) but doing the best I can. Love to do these before I get out of bed Thank you!

[@drkristieennis]

You’re welcome! Hope things keep going in the right direction with your ankle!

[@Dragonfire7777777]

Thank you so much for showing alternative exercises for those of us with limited reach/movement! Much appreciated🙏🏾 Loosening my hips is my pledge to myself this year, and watching your videos for how to do this painlessly is such a help😌

[@ME-hr8dl]

I've been suffering with a quite painful left hip after years of cycling and squash playing and have found your video amazing to help alleviate the symptoms. Ps. I couldn't help noticing that you have one amazing physique! Respect

[@FrazCam100]

These exercises have really helped relieve my painful hips. Thank you.

[@velvetduchess]

I've just tried this for the first time as my hips ache and are tight and this has worked. Thank you for making me in less pain. I will be making these part of my everyday routine now xx

[@johnirwin2608]

Thanks for the help and the overhead shots to help with how my body is supposed to turn. You make it look easy and inspire me.

[@drkristieennis]

You are so welcome!

[@aomahana]

Thank you for taking the time to upload this. It has really helped.

[@GarySBCA]

Pacing and clarity of the speech and also the visual illustration of movement were really are helpful in understanding the proper form. Alternative movement options, encouraging and positive attitude are icing on the cake. 👍🏼

[@juliedsilva6626]

Talked too fast, made ME feel out of breath!

[@GarySBCA]

@@juliedsilva6626 Really? It was PERFECT for me, but did you know KZbin has an option in the settings to increase or decrease the playback speed? I’ve used it a few times. The trouble is that the next slowest speed setting is 75% which sometimes is too slow and can make the person speaking sound like they’re drunk!

[@gracielaingunza2239]

😅EN ESPAÑOL.🙏🙏🙏

[@MaxJustice100]

Great stuff , jumped on KZbin this morning looking for hip stretches before training legs and I found you, fantastic, thank you for posting.

[@patriciacarter9825]

Just tried it and received more flexibility in my left hip just where I needed it! Thank you!

[@thiralane1420]

Thank you. I really like a previous comment saying their pledge to themselves this year is loosening their hips… I’m following their lead! A beginning to some much needed self care. Thanks for the informative versions of each exercise with different angle shots! Very helpful x 🙏

[@michelleparker-katz8036]

Sooo helpful. Seeing the series is important, too.

[@starfalls4551]

Thanks a lot. This was very needed for me, I realized with the things I do on a daily that I rely mostly on moving things from one spot to the other in my household and I've come to a conclusion that the main issue is my hips surprisingly. I am very grateful I have stumbled upon your video.

[@mskiara18]

I compliment how professional your videos are edited, thank you for recording a side and overhead view so that we can perform the stretches properly. I am trying to get back into being active and tight stiffness in my hips is what I want to alleviate this year.

[@drkristieennis]

Thanks so much and that’s a great goal! Check out these videos too: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5vSdZ16mtOGgq8 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mquzf5lolNKDjKs

Best video I've seen on hip stretches. I had total hip replacement and wound up with tightness on that side. Will work at these stretches to see if I can't even things up.

[@drkristieennis]

Thank you! I hope your hip feels better:)

[@Tangaroa775]

Fantastic muscle definition and great stretching for the hips flexors

[@KatieTheAngelfish]

Thank you so much for this video! The stretches seem very kind to not-very-agile people (like me). I suffer daily from pain through my hips because of stiffness, so I'm definitely going to try these exercises. Lovely explanations and you seem like a very kind person :) Keep up the good work!

[@StuVideff]

I love to watch your videos. Especially the top view is really good. I love it!

[@greenstair]

Thank you for these videos and help. I really appreciate your time and effort in making and publishing these.

[@drkristieennis]

You are very welcome!

[@LaurennM360]

Whew. This relieved a lot of tension/soreness in my lower back even though it was for hips. (Maybe it was my hips all along haha). Thank you for your videos! :) You are really great at explaining how to move and making sure you accommodate people at different levels. It makes it really customizable and you can find out how you are feeling each day you do it and what is comfortable for you. I enjoy it. 😊

[@drkristieennis]

The hip definitely play a big role in back pain:) I’m happy I can help!

[@usamerican0005]

[@samanthak.mcdaniel7955]

Always remove your wallet when driving - learned that puts hips out of alignment and can worsen sciatic nerve pain.

[@raquellak6551]

These are all great and so accessible and not intimidating to do regularly! Definitely going to be back for a follow along a few times until I get it down!

[@dawncasey8472]

I’ve done these exercises +more almost every day, for over 10 years. Before I get out of bed in the morning or when I can’t sleep. I’m 77 and I think I’m more flexible than most in my over 50 chair-fit class.

Watch out! I did some very similar exercises as prevention, now I have a pinched nerve in my hip and have been suffering for months. Go easy.

This!!!! You can't do what all these folks show or you can injury yourself if your muscles are extremely stiff.

OK, what's "chirp weeks "?

[@mregister3945]

The "secret" I tell my clients is to LISTEN to your body as you SLOWLY gain flexibility. The last (unspoken) part of "no pain/no gain" is NO BRAIN! Pain is your body's way of telling you to ease up. 😮
