Hip Mobility - Increase External Rotation for Squat and other Poses

[@BreatheAndFlow]

*No matter how much you move, if you don't do specific hip mobility training regularly then this is an important practice for you!*

[@ikeozuzu645]

Curious, do yall got any tips for people who jus had reconstruction acl surgery? Ive been doin the session b4 my surgery on the 20th, n i feel like that already is helpin alot with my recovery, any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated

[@ecosx2618]

I have been doing this video a couple times a week for the past 2 months and it has literally changed my life! I was unable to move my right hip at all without experiencing sharp pain in my hip joint. I’ve been slowly seeing the healing process work and now I can actually sit in a double pigeon without any pain! Who knows how much I would’ve spent on physical therapy to gain my mobility back. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart

[@Grayment]

This is my absolute favorite Bre video 💪🏻

[@michaelyiweihuang6298]

I did it before bed, and I felt really relieved. Thank you and have a good day.

[@scorpleeon]

I have hip imbalance from a childhood injury. It makes running more challenging and I feel it in any standing balance pose, my right is too forward, left too far back. This felt great. 🙏🏽

[@charlietodd8195]

Can you please show a easier modification to the double pigeon?

[@alexmogross9958]

At the second half of the video this felt like one of the toughest things I ever did in my life. But right after it I felt great and this helps tremendously to get finally into lotus seat. Cant thank you enough for sharing your knowledge :)

[@deepika9186]

Thankyou so much for this video. I feel lighter and more open in the hip region, feels like freshly oiled bicycle gears. Really liked your instructions. Thanks Bre.

[@gretcheno3125]

Very informative video

[@joseantoniosalinasvega7956]

Great practice i had some trouble with postures but i did my best, i trying to improve my mobilty because i have bad joints and im not flexible at all, thanks for sharing. Namaste

[@Exalted.by.Radomir]

This was actually the first yoga class where I was laughing :D looking at the ankle, shaking, and not moving at all :DDD

[@1vessy4]

Wonderful class! Thank you

[@limowreckucuciv]

Thanks! i never have practice this movements!

[@gretcheno3125]

Thank you for all that you're teaching me :)

[@LeaferLoves]

As I've gotten older, I've noticed occasional days of achiness and tightness in my hips. Movements and poses like these really do help. Thank you for an excellent video! 💖

[@mairavp]

Thank you!

[@Hephthehomie]

This was awesome, as a nice alternative to the yoga. Really good even for rest days, ofc adjusting fir how sore you feel. Grateful for content like this~

[@jessicacarreon1673]

This is so so helpful! I still can’t do the double pigeon variation, but did my best and it made something as simple as sitting with my legs crossed feel so much looser/less pain. Thanks again you both!

[@BreatheAndFlow]

You can do 3-4 rounds of butterfly only and leave out the double pigeon variation.

[@joakkimp]

can I do the double pigeon sitting on a block?

[@shyamtoprani]

Same question … is there a modification that can help with double pigeon?

[@Busyfigureskating]

Great video idea! I think this is super important for ppl who weight train as well as do yoga

[@BreatheAndFlow]

we'd go as far as saying that this is important for anyone that sits a lot as most people do not have a functioning hip, even if you practice yoga asana daily

[@Busyfigureskating]

@@BreatheAndFlow Yes definitely! Very good point. Btw- I just completed this mobility routine and I loved it; I will start incorporating this into my life more often. Thank you! I love your work and your videos because you both are great at explaining and teaching about the biomechanics of the body.

[@martelindbergsli9779]

Thank you Bre, this is so good

[@BobmarIes]

This left a sock imprint the size of my palm on my thigh haha. Love the video, feels like I've extended my range a lot just from one sesssion!

[@Sinseldop]

impossible for me to get in double pigeon. What I could do to improve it?

[@nayelilu519]

Thank you so much!!! My body feels ease with this

[@Occultcafe]

I love the encouragement :,)

[@dedepollnow219]

This was great! I have super tight hips. It’s making me pitch forward when I squat so hopefully these exercises will help me get back to proper squats. 😊

[@brandyoja7106]

Great timing! Thank you for sharing these techniques😊💖✌

[@somershi]

thank you Bree, I did need that! I promise to rest:0)~

[@FelipeQuirce]

Thanks for the video, it would be nice one for shoulders but a more integrated in a flow. Thanks

[@BreatheAndFlow]

we integrate these mobility exercises into our flows on patreon, since you need a lot more time!

[@StefanyD.]

Thanks ❤❤❤

[@Saltine7777]

that was intense. i definitely needed that. thx!

[@iamprincesskiran]

this felt good, so good.

[@JMSDyt]

Thnaks!!

[@Yetipfote]

"Use it or lose it!" is that very true credo of movement and the body in general. Now I don't wonder why many elder people walk and move as they do after a life of very constricted, repeated movement. I want to be mobile when I'm old.

[@bethlea1554]

Great video, thanks. Are you able to post the links to the internal hip rotation and the two other hip mobility videos? I am incredibly stiff in my hips. I can manage the first exercise but I am nowhere near to getting into double pigeon. My top leg won’t go anywhere close to the bottom leg. I know that’s ok but I feel it would help my overall practice if I could open up my hips.

[@BreatheAndFlow]

They’re not published yet. Internal rotation, flex ion and extension are coming soon 🙏🏽

[@charlietodd8195]

Does this work the adductor muscles?

[@FocusLover]

When is your online FRC training coming? ;-)

[@daviddugan6046]

beautiful thank you

[@Catyuu9]

Missed you 😻

[@vivih1428]

I love this video. It's a great help for us not-so-flexible yogis! Thank you, Bre! Can you also tell me where you found your beautiful top and pants? I love the colours.💖🙏🏻🌸🥰

[@jessicabartolini2499]

Hello! What a wonderful class. Really enjoyed. I was curious what mic you use? Thanks so much.

[@BreatheAndFlow]

Check the description to get to our kit and all our equipment 🙏🏽

[@docmincakes]

When I do butterfly my knees are touching the ground and the soles of my feet face the ceiling, is that a problem? Should I press the soles of my feet together? Thanks for the content, came for BJJ and you guys converted me to yoga! Can't wait for the official merchandise

[@BreatheAndFlow]

keep the soles together. if you do not feel a stretch in the butterfly position then elevate your feet by bringing them on a block. also do the second exercise. see if that all helps!

[@sianecesar400]

I loved😍 exactly what I need

[@hasnaen]

after this video, i found myself way more relaxed in my core, also found i was able to breath easier and deeper

[@vinzenzeltz4431]

I really enjoyed this class, thank you. I was just wondering where I can find the other hip mobility classes:) for internal rotation ?

[@BreatheAndFlow]

we had some problems with our uploads and the order is a bit mixed now, they're coming next week! thank you for practicing 🙏

[@vinzenzeltz4431]

@@BreatheAndFlow Great I’m looking forward to it, thank you:)

[@sunshineandinkamedia252]

Yummy happy, healthy hips. Thank you. Namaste ✨🤸🏽✨

[@josuejui8876]

Namaste

[@Robin-ur4xq]

When I do these my upper back gets incredibly stiff.. - tips on why that could be / what to do about it anyone?

[@hbonthetrack]

Literally how to unf**k your hips…sheesh. And mind you it wasn’t that long either. Just a quick humbling experience of your hips
