Dear sir, I've been suffering from my right hip for months. I went to see a fysioterapist, an osteopath, an orthopedic, etc... I did exercises which I found in books and on KZbin, Instagram... Yesterday I came across your video and I did all five exercises. I still can't believe it but the pain is gone. Completely and entirely gone ! I slept on my right side last night without feeling any pain. I am so very grateful for your help and insight in the human body. I can't thank you enough for making this video !

[@RehabScience]

That is so great to hear!!

[@turkicsayajin2274]

of course ! They want you to come back ! So they can make more money, never heal a patient too fast you are loosing money ! I’m really happy you got pain relief

[@trishareichenberg5093]

I agree with you. You find better exercises on the KZbin then PT. I was in PT for 4 months. Never fixed my rotor cuffs. Both torn... Went to a trainer in July and now my rotor cuffs and my pastor are way better. We're now working on the atrophy arsh Stick with it everyday my friend if you can 2 3 times to get your bottom strengthened

[@ashakadaba5812]

Woww good

[@Hugo97HD]

Brother, keep it up! Nowadays, many people suffer of pain on their shoulders, knees, hips, etc because of muscle imbalances. When the right muscles are not working in harmony then other body structures that are not supposed to do that work have to assist. Stuff like this if untreated and if the person keeps on abusing their body will just worsen things till it it so bad that you'll need surgery. If you have pain on your hips or shoulders look into increasing your mobility and strengthen the new ranges of motion, don't just stretch!!

[@amandalilley6098]

So many dumb PTs over a period of 20 years couldn't figure out what was causing my hip pain. This fixed it in a week. Where have you been all my life?

[@Canv1000]

I have to return to comment on your excellent exercise video for the medius and minimus. I tore my left medius and injured the tensor fasciae latae this last summer. Thanks to the ultrasound technician who did excellent work and an explanation of where and what was injured with the caveat not to tell the Dr. she had explained this. The Dr. wasn't very helpful, just "you have a tear' here's the report see your Dr. when you get home and you'll need physical therapy. Well I did some research your video came up as well as others. Yours struck a chord. I've been doing these exercises in combination with a core Pilates program, and daily walking and my chronic lower back pain has disappeared and my enjoyment of more hiking has increased. I'm a senior and maintaining my health so I can continue to be active is important. Thank you so much!

I donno if you eat any "junk food" but it causes inflammation. I had to clean up my diet, and two weeks later sciatica and any aches and pains were gone. And my ankles were noticeably slim.

These are great exercises, thanks. I had severe lateral glute soreness while backpacking up a 10,000 foot mountain. Was really slowing me down. Definitely going to try these to build my strength.

[@RehabScience]

Gluteus medius and minimus often produce lateral Gluth/hip soreness and pain, so these should be helpful.

[@davidjones4600]

Saulza, is your lateral gluteal soreness only on one side? If so, there is a very good chance your pelvis is off on that side. Think about it … if both legs are supporting your body weight while doing the backpacking, why is there severe lateral gluteal soreness only on one side?

[@mar12415]

I have been trying to heal this kind of nerve? pain in my left glute? hip? and have been trying exercises that target the sciatic nerve or piriformis muscle and I have not had much progress at all. I started a full on exercise regime a year ago so it can really act up ( I am a 50 year old woman ). I just finished doing all 5 exercises, 3 sets of 10 on each side. Afterwards, I felt right away that nice feeling when a specific area gets a good targeted workout and I could feel a sudden sensation of blood and chi? "warming" that whole area on my left glute. Very happy to start including these exercises into my program. Thank you sooo incredibly much.

[@RehabScience]

So glad to hear you had a good experience with these exercises. Often times, pain in the hip and low back improves when we activate and strengthen gluteus medius and minimus.

[@gravestonemyth]

Thanks for this video. I found the pelvic hitch (#4) to be particularly helpful. I have some long-term issues deep in my left hip, and this one seems to hit the spot. Plus, I can do this stretch almost anywhere. And, while I have been doing bridges for a few years, I have recently increased the variations and reps. The hip abduction with internal rotation also really hits the spot. I've been doing them quite a while without the internal rotation, and that single change makes it exponentially more challenging. I'm gradually erasing my FAI diagnosis with targeted glute med and min work.

[@RehabScience]

So glad to hear the exercises are hitting the right spot and helping!

[@AAden-pd6hh]

As a fellow FAI sufferer for years I have to share that banded hip mobility exercises saved me. Strengthening atrophied muscles is important but the range of motion and relief you get from the band is truly life changing. Let me know if you want links to some videos and keep up the good work 👍

Thank you for demonstrating these exercises. My gluteus Med/min are so weak I cannot do all of them and the ones I can do, I can only do a couple of reps before the muscle gives out and my back muscles start working instead. I think the overall weakness in these muscles is contributing to my recent flare of SI joint pain.

[@RehabScience]

Weakness and a lack of endurance in these muscles can definitely contribute to SI joint and low back issues. I would perform them until you feel your back starting to kick in and then rest. Overtime, your strength and endurance will improve and you should be able to do more reps without utilizing your back muscles too much.

[@davidjones4600]

Steph A, what if the real issue is an unstable pelvis on the same side as the SI issue?

Question: Multiple sources seem to indicate that 90° hip flexion + abduction involves the Deep 6 external rotators. Does this mean that the normal hip abductors (glute med/min/TFL) no longer play any role in abduction once the hip becomes flexed, or rather that they simply start sharing the load with external rotators?

Great instruction...I'm scheduled for hip replacement but MRI also showed partial tear of gluteus minimus. Wondering if I can do these exercises now before surgery. Will show this to my orthopod.

[@RehabScience]

Yes, I would recommend performing these before surgery if they can be done with no more than mild pain. We have evidence showing that people who strength training before surgery are able to regain their strength faster after surgery.

Great sequence. I have core instability thank you

[@RehabScience]

You're welcome! These hip exercises often help improve core strength and stability.

This is incredibly useful content!

Glad you thought so!

[@erickanorris567]

thanks for being up to date. My PT for hip arthroscopy hasn't had a CEU in years and I ended up with hip flexor tendonitis and an impingement . I have a 10 week wait to get into a different PT.

[@RehabScience]

Sorry to hear that!

Thank you so much! Looking for a video like this

[@benedictroberts678]

This has highlighted to me how different each side of my butt is, working the clutch does a number on the symmetry.

[@RehabScience]

Haha, very true! It’s amazing how those little repetitive things in life can cause muscular asymmetries.

[@jt9228]

Just subscribed. I will try these for my shrinking glutes due to knee surgeries. Thanks so much for the information !

[@RehabScience]

Thank you! I hope you find the exercises to be helpful!

[@P.S.333]

Thank you so much for these good exercises! I love them. God bless you!

[@RehabScience]

You’re so welcome! I am glad the video was helpful to you!

[@katiecullen9824]

I just had my glut med and glut min reattached as I completely tore them off so these exercises are awesome!!!

[@RehabScience]

So glad the video was helpful!

[@Katie-vy5rd]

That sounds so painful! Do you mind if I ask how?

[@katiecullen9824]

That’s not really known. The surgeon thinks years of micro tears and a camelback breaking straw. My labrum was majorly torn as well. That was all on the left. And the great news is I’ve torn my right side as well. And yes, the surgery is extremely painful but worth it. Right side is next, hopefully minus the labral tear, but they won’t know til they’re in there.

[@gravelslinger9331]
