Sitting Kills Hip Mobility MWOD

February 22, 2012 By Gregor Winter

Kelly Starrett tackles the greatest evil of our modern world. Sitting.

Test: Can you get 120-130 degrees of range of motion in a knee raise? I failed.

  • pulling yourself forward when in the bottom position of the squat creates a pseudo flat back (man belly – anterior pelvic tilt)
  • instead, push the knees out to create torque

On that same note, check out Kelly Starrett’s Deskbound Talk.
