This will satisfy your weekly monthly dose of half naked Justiness.
Adding to his recent post on causes for Hyperlordosis he made a video explaining how to find your psoas.
- roll on one side
- imagine a line connecting the hip bone and belly button
- on that line go 5cm off from the belly button, right next to your rectus abdominis
- contract hip flexors to see if you found the right spot
- you have now found your psoas
More posts dealing with tight hip flexors.
Update: Oh and btw, Justin is doing an AMA on reddit’s weightroom today (16. August) at 6pm EST.
Update: When you are done touching yourself here is a little hip opener video.

August 16, 2012 at 23:10Have anyone ever seen a list of “where” to adress the manipulation, if reference pain is present in “this” area.??
Example: Focus the manipulation/massage on the upper portion of psoas is you want to adress reference pain right below gluteal area
