Inferior Hip Glide

INFERIOR HIP GLIDE

This is a band assisted hip joint mobilization technique used to target the joint capsule. Anchor a heavy strength band / pullup assist band to a stable object about 2 feet above the ground. Lie down on your back so that your thigh is in line with the band. Loop the band around the front of your thigh and flex the hip to 90 degrees. Hold the thigh in place with your hands and relax your hip muscles to allow the band to pull your hip towards the anchor point. You may hold this for up to 30-60 seconds.
