Deadlift Hip Impingement (EVALUATION & FIX)

[@matthiasr5717]

That exercises helped me fixing hip pain I was facing for the last 8 years...You and your work are such a bless for me and so many people, thank you Aaron 🙏

[@jaffaraltamimi9206]

The first page that really taught me how to deal with hip impingement

[@7alexnder_7]

Awesome. I've been suffering from a hip impingement for about 8 years now. I've been seen by 6 physiotherapist to address the issue, but all they told me was that I should stretch more often. Nevertheless, the more I stretched the more flexible i became, but the symptoms didn't go away. I will start doing it today. Thanks for tip. Merry Christmas.

[@marie-laurequayson6366]

I’m in the same boat! About to start these exercises! Did it work for you?

[@AntonGson]

Hey, any update on how it has been going?

[@bozdogan_]

I enlightened when you explained the logic behind those movements. Learned so much about how hip joint works. Thanks.

[@Dan_Turner2001]

This video is exactly what I needed. I have rebuilding milo too but sometimes I still come back to the videos I remember. Thank you for your contributions to the community Dr. Horschig!

[@angusvsdonuts]

Fastest I ever clicked on a video😅

[@RadicaLxIce]

awesome, glad I found this vid. I pulled something deadlifting years ago and now that im seriously into bodybuilding/strength training i want to start deadlifting again. This is the exact pain I was having

[@angellorenzoa]

Damn. I’ve been studying NASM CES for the past months... you literally explained the mobility and strengthening techniques so well. Good work, bro.

[@cathalmullins2707]

This mans videos has helped me fix my running overuse hip flexor problem. Back running thanks to this guy. I still hate squatting and glute activation exercises though.

[@Fammyy.]

I’ve literally just started sumo lifting & have pain just like Shelly😂 This video was PERFECT TIMING😂👏🏽

[@coreywechsler717]

Did u start sumo then have bad pain in your hip also. And how’s it going ?

[@sreg56]

Excellent info and demonstration thanks. She's strooooong

You are the best bro 💪 Hi from Slovakia 🇸🇰

[@maxpower5228]

I really like your videos and the way you present stuff in general, but the last 5 videos showing you "at work" really raise the bar :) So much great content, really helpful advice & cues and you always deliver the proof that the excercises work. Thanks Aaron!

[@churchiglesiabethel-piano4813]

Thanks so much for this videos ive been stuck tryna sumo deadlift at 405 these past few weeks because the hip pain has been so annoying

[@sarahbrown8022]

I literally love you haha your videos are by far the best I’ve ever come across. You cover so much and explain things so well!! I wish I could have a session with you one day to gain some of your knowledge. Thanks so much for what you do.

[@luisparanhos8475]

I´m from Portugal and i want to congratulate you for your nice and remarkable work! I love your posts! Well done, go ahead! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@kokkollu]

Great video! Thanks~ Could you perhaps do a video on biceps tendinitis/shoulder pain? Been trying countless different things and no luck with a bunch of doctors either...

[@SquatUniversity]

I'll see what I can do. In the mean time, check out this blog and try the tests: squatuniversity.com/2018/08/04/how-to-screen-your-shoulder-pain/

[@jakobsteinaa]

EXACTLY the stretch I needed! Thx a bunch!

[@lucasjay1000]

Thanks so much for this video! I asked for it and you posted it. I’ve found banded mobilization, stretching of surrounding muscles, and glute bridges/clams help quite a bit

[@justalittlebitmo]

This is so cool 😎 Looks miserable working out in a mask, but glad she pushed through. Amazing improvement. Once again, learned so much!

[@SquatUniversity]

[@adarshreddy4072]

Pls make this a series 🙏🏾

[@edsfit4702]

This is happening to me on both sides since I injured my knees, the injuries were not severe, I had no tears, what happened was during a squat my knees went bonkers and rotated inwards more than normal (I have hypermobility due to EDS) but it left me without being able to squat and deadlift because it feels something is being pinched in the front of my hips going down to my knees, I tried everything, massage and stretching, I can rotate well the knee outward but when I do the same movement inwards it's very painful. Thank goodness I found this I need to start right away.

[@IMPALASATL]

Great video, thanks 👏🏾

[@mametart8254]

Thank you, I did a sumo deadlift and it was hard to walk, now I’m 3 minutes im good

[@Jen-io1uv]

Love these videos!

[@shad3115]

My physio therapist told me to do this but I had nowhere at home to attach the band to so I never did it. Now that I’ve been going gym I can give it a go. I just never realised it helped THAT much. Hip dysplasia is so annoying.

[@mateuszkolodziejczyk1]

Great content! I have been having pain in deep inside my hip and continue to work on it with my physio. She says that I don't have an impingement but instead I suffer from a capsulitis so I do a hip capsule stretch daily and also work on glute strenghtening. Also in a lateral hip stability test my glute muscles were were weak compared to other positions that work the same muscles. I was advised to learn how to activate my muscles in that exact position instead of focusing on strenghtening them as they are already strong enough but just don't fire up in that specific position. I've been working on the issue for a few months already but my progress have stalled and I still experience pain in both of my hips (the left one is significantly worse though). Do you have any piece of advice for me Doctor? Thank you in advance.

[@TheMrGreenMoney]

What level of resistance must the power band have to do these exercises?

[@marcelo1810]

What band is the one at 1:11, so I can purchase one and do that exercise/stretch

[@vardanchaudharyworld]

Your book squat bible helped me a lot ! Im not exaggerating It single handedly changed my life .My lower back pain is very less now as compared to before ,but it keeps coming back whenever i try to bend forward! Sometimes I can’t even bend my neck forward it instantly hurts on the spot. And another question- Can i do dead hangs for decompression of spine , cuz i have disc bulge And if yes for how many sets and minutes.

[@SquatUniversity]

Im so glad that book could help so much! I would do a few things: first read this blog and let me know what you find. squatuniversity.com/2018/04/28/how-to-screen-your-low-back-pain/

[@vardanchaudharyworld]

Thank you so much doc. By reading your article i came to know that I have flexion intolerance. I tried whats written on the article , it feels good laying on stomach just a bit pain when raising the leg otherwise its good.

[@vardanchaudharyworld]

I was doing russian twist with a medicine ball last year and after that i did 3-4 sets of weighted hypertension and next day I couldn’t even getup from the bed and won’t be able to bend properly for couple of days.I think thats the origin of the problem

[@gojkogalonja]

How would you incorporate these drills into powerlifting regimen of training? Right before deadlifts and squats, or continuously do it outside of training?

[@rem-rt8wj]

The Hip-Airplane should be a good strengthening excersice too for the problem with the gluteus medius? Which exercise would you prefer? I think for beginners the exercise you showed in the video is easier to execute

[@jeffwilliams7054]

Ty!!!

[@joejoeejoeee]

Hey Dr. Horschig, thanks for publishing so much great content. I sent a message via your site but didn't get a reply: do you see patients virtually during COVID? I don't live in your state.

[@onslaught213]

Does hip impingement lead to sciatic nerve?

[@fsamp9969]

Hi! I watch all your videos. I have a question, can shin stiffness make your knees pop?

[@dcvg1241]

I get that banded mobilizations help with temporary restriction improvement. Isn't the problem caused primarily by muscle weaknesses/imbalances? If so Doc, can we just do strengthening exercises to improve mobility as opposed to joint mobilization. For instance I have been doing wide stance box squatting twice a week to improve my hip mobility (effectively should strengthen my weak hips ) . Would this be a correct approach?

[@SquatUniversity]

Everyone will be different - but I've found the best approach is often the comprehensive manner of addressing both issues. It all comes down to the good evaluation to uncover the problem(s) and then doing some test-retest to find how we can slowly improve movement quality and pain levels.

[@spindleblood]

So if I have FAI it's better to do sumo deadlift than conventional?

[@awildgrendel7148]

I wold love to be a trainer like you. What are some good certificates I can work on towards this? Is a masters/PhD requires? .

[@samdajellybeenie14]

Not a physiotherapist, but from what research I’ve done, it pretty much requires a Master’s degree.

[@MariaAudioChick]

In US PT requires a doctorate. I'm an assistant physical therapist which only required about 3 years including the clinical internships.

[@fredriksingh9921]

Can you make these improvements with FAI (CAM/pincer)?

[@bisaiah9797]

@ .Squat University .. Doc, I have had this problem for over 10 yrs.

[@SquatUniversity]

What do you find with the tests I performed on this patient?

[@666gb]

@@SquatUniversity Are there alternatives to banded joint mobilization to do at home?

[@SimonLi]

How many sets and reps do you recommend for the banded swuats and other exercises? Also how many weeks should one perform this? Thank you so much for the video!

[@SquatUniversity]

I like 2-3 sets of 10 -15 reps for the banded squats (volume is key early on for correcting the problem pattern). And everyone will be a little different for how long they need the exercises. Eventually they turn into warm ups & tools you can use every once and a while if needed.

[@MARCOmxr96]

What if the pinching pain is in the back of the hip? Do you suggest another type of joint mobilization? (Two years dealing with this)

[@kristina9605]

I’ve always had really tight hips from lifting / CrossFit. Recently I’m experiencing a lot of tightness in my right hip and decreased mobility so I’m trying to study up on hip health. When I do sumo deadlifts occasionally I will get a huge pop from my right hip as I begin the push with my legs off the ground but no pain, it feels GREAT. This has happened for years. But now I’m having right hip trouble during squats .. The tightness feels like it goes down my entire IT band as well but my typical stretches aren’t helping it... I’m curious to try the banded lunge in the video, that might give me some more space in the hips!

[@zakriyyanazir6263]

What strength level band is she using in this video? I bought a band but it was to tough and stiff I couldnt get that stretch out of it

[@zoelauragill]

I’ve been dealing with hip impingement in my right hip for 8months now. I’ve watched numerous videos of yours about strengthening the glutes and using bands like the first exercise. I still can’t shake the pinching and it’s preventing me from doing a lot of daily activities and exercise. Any suggestions?

[@TheLexieWilson]

Have you found any relief? I’m having the same issues and it’s been over a year for me with no change...

[@zoelauragill]

@@TheLexieWilson unfortunately not, I still have it. I’ve got a steroid injection this month but I know that’s not a permanent fix

@@zoelauragill oh no,I’m so sorry. 😞 i hope that helps and you find a solution soon!

[@zoelauragill]

@@TheLexieWilson thank you so much, I hope you manage to alleviate some of the symptoms too and it gets better with time 💜

[@valfranky]

@@zoelauragill hey! I’ve had the same pain for months and it got so bad to where I couldn’t do sumo anymore. I’ve been going at it trying to find the solution and I found what helped me. I did some accessory hip work like show in the video BUT what made the difference is I recorded my deadlifts and realized I put my hips too low when I started pulling. I started pulling with my hips higher in a more natural position. I hope this helps. Try searching up “high hip deadlift” on KZbin and look at the vids to help. I hope this helps

[@mixedmartialhoops9299]

What if the hip hurts while external rotation?

[@marcelo1810]

Hey Aaron! I've got a question, what bands do you use?

[@mystictheninja1486]

I've always done a lot of kicking and glute work, both glute max and med, so I feel like my glute med should be pretty good already. I feel like I might have bothered my hip flexor somehow or maybe it was grinding an impinged area in the hip there, but since then I've had this impingement and can't lift leg passed 90degrees. I'm wondering, aside from strengthening the glute med, is there something on the other side like adductors that are too tight that are contributing to pulling the femur out of alignment in the socket? Since I can usually do the side splits, I feel like adductors should also be pretty flexible so I'm wondering why this problem cropped up and what the whole overview is for it?

[@ghostjoey3]

What if you have hip dysplasia?

[@gigabuyceps]

How is the lifting mat called?

[@tyfetaka8410]

Everytime I do barbell deadlift I end up Misaligning my hips - to treat i attach weight to my foot and let it dangle while standing on other single leg on elevated step. Deadlifting with trap/hex bar I never have this issue. Can anyone tell me why it happens from barbell?
