Small hip muscles

Let's have a look at the lateral rotators of the hip. Why are there so many of them? What do we use them for?

Medical student from Melbourne, Aus - I wish I had you as an anatomy tutor! These videos deserve so many more views. You have literally got me through my required anatomy knowledge in the second year!

[@imranpathan1053]

You are too good. 1st time I am writing a comment. Your videos are knowledgeable, informative, easy to understand and also a little funny. In short they are very enjoyable and knowledgeable. Thanks a lot. Great job.

You're the most gracious and funny teacher ever, I almost cry of happiness at how much I can understand when you explain, I tried the whole youtube, seriously. You're saving my first year of Med School. Thank you!

3rd time watching this video in my career in physical therapy school, and it is still useful every time! Great recaps keeping the anatomy fresh. Thanks!

Hamstring muscles control movement of your torso, hips and knees, help turn your legs in and out, and are involved with power activities that include a lot of propulsion, thrust and control (such as jumping, climbing, and running). They allow your knee to bend (flex the leg at the knee) and pull your leg backward while propelling your body forward when you move (your thigh straightens and extends the leg back at the hip). They are involved with eccentric movements, which increase the length of the muscle while it is under tension - instead of starting an action, the muscles act as a brake to stop an action. You can feel this when walking or running downhill, landing from jumps or performing squats, and when trying to stop quickly after sprinting. Approximately 12% to 16% of all injuries in athletes are hamstring strains and the re-injury rate is an eye-popping 22% to 34% Eventually, we use the other leg more and more - or even use our hip instead of our hamstring for a lengthy period of time. This is why the hip and opposite leg starts to hurt - they are being overused now. Soon, aches and pain can become commonplace in the lower body - all as a result of the original hamstring strain and the body's instinctive nature to "protect" the original injury - all because the injury wasn't fully healed in the first place! Muscle imbalances result, placing tension on bone and softer tissues - leading to a misalignment within the lower body. The extra stress on the opposite side of the body will also result in weakness and fatigue of soft tissue - increasing the chances they can eventually be injured or gradually degenerate.

[@MichaelArmentano]

I've got an injury that I suspect is at the insertion or origin point of one of the obturators - spent hours searching through fairly useless stuff and finally found this! I loved your videos on various organs, but didn't think to look here for the short rotators in the hip. Well, I'm glad I finally found this - great and useful content!

[@daxmauricioscottmeza217]

Hi Sam, I am a Costa Rican coach who watches your videos from time to time. I saw this newly posted video a year ago and didn't notice that your dress shoes were pointy. That may be the cause of disabling hip stabilizing muscles. Pointed shoe pushes and deforms the toes, affecting the stability of the foot, which can also deactivate the hip stabilizers. I recommend changing your work and eventually sports footwear as well to reestablish the natural anatomy of your foot.

[@jehannemarie1163]

Do you have a video on piriformis syndrom?

[@PikesCore24]

Sam, these a great. Question: Why does stretching your Piriformis feel so good? Of all the muscle in the body, a Piriformis stretch is probably the most pleasurable, particularly after lots of squats and lunges? It is like a shot of relaxation. Why is that? (I stretch my Piriformis by lying on my back, crossing one ankle in front of the the opposite thigh, bending my knees, and pulling my knees back. A standard method.)

[@SamWebster]

I've no idea. Maybe it's like scratching an itch (neurologically speaking)?

[@freerider3434]

Thank you, fantastic video! I'm trying the side splits right now and I've learnt that for some people the greater trochanter is meeting the hip making for an anatomical limit. Pushing further, I've learnt, will result in the head of the femur being slight levered out of it's socket. So here goes my question: How do I distinguish between the feeling of stretches in my small hip muscles which aren't used to this new attempted range of motion and the feeling of the greater trochanter meeting my hip bone, beginning to lever the head of the femur out of it's socket? I understand the for an optimal side split position the hip needs to be rotated forwards. I don't want to damage or weaken my small hip muscles by dislocating the joint but I do want to try to achieve as much of a split as is anatomically possible. If you've read all of this, thank you very much and I'd be very grateful for an answer. Once again, you are producing fantastic, entertaining, educational content! Thanks!

[@leusmaximusx]

Good day Dr Sam, im interested in what muscles that makes the hip turn (clockwise left side goes to front) when we are standing on one leg (right) with the turn pivots on the right leg. Im asking because i dont know how the golfers generate force from the gorund reaction to the legs to make the hip torque powerfully. Thanks

[@imhumanfornowlivingonmycou885]

Thank you Sam for your amazing videos. Could you please tell us which exercises we could do to get rid of hip dips? Thanks in advance. 😘

[@SamWebster]

Are hip dips bad? It's just part of the shape here isn't it? To strengthen gluteal muscles and other hip muscles you can do squats, lunges, clams, box steps, pistols and similar exercises. It's great to strengthen these muscles (and all muscles really).

[@OldFogeyGoalie]

I heard somewhere the piriformis is partially responsible for external rotation below 60 degrees and internal rotation above 60 degrees. As a hockey goalie, I’m interested in hip strength and health. Are there other exercises you recommend other than clam shells that could target some of these muscles?

[@PikesCore24]

Thanks for video. I'm a little surprised that the Obturator Internus can attach to a "membrane". I always picture muscles attaching to bones. I'm not doubting this information, but it seems strange.

[@jehannemarie1163]

[@smacky1966]

Does not the piriformis become a medial rotator of the femur when the hip is flexed?

[@mohammedaffanahmed8832]

Sir , are you a physio? Btw you are amazing, thanks alot sir!

[@shaikhzoya2002]

I did not understand the following sentence regarding hip joint “Though the articular surfaces on the head of the femur and on the acetabulum are reciprocally curved , they are not co-extensive.” could u plz help

[@SamWebster]

Did I say that? It sounds like the sort of language I try to avoid. It means that the surfaces on each bone are curved to match each other, but one has a larger articular surface than the other (because one moves a lot, the other does not).

[@shaikhzoya2002]

No , those were not your words. It's my book who got me confused. What does being "co-extensive" or "not co-extensive"" mean?

[@SamWebster]

“Not co-extensive” means they don’t cover the same amount of surface. They’re different sizes. If you think about how the femur moves within the acetabulum it makes sense.

[@shaikhzoya2002]

ya it does make sense now. Femur has larger articular surface than the acetabulum because femur moves a lot and acetabulum does not. Thank yo so much for the video as well as for the quick replies. God bless u

I teach an exercise class, where we stretch the piriformis, and the students always ask, where is the priformis? I find it difficult to answer. You video helps, but it is still difficult to explain. Question: is there anyway you can palpitate your piriformis?

[@PikesCore24]

Oh, silly me, it is spelled palpate.
