Hips
Key function The hips help drive us forward and stabilize our landing while preventing excess side-to-side motion that could strain the back and cause leg injuries.
Quick fix A Leg lifts: Lift your top leg up, lower, repeat 12 to 15 times each leg.
B Kneeling hip-flexor stretch: Lunge, keep upper body straight, front knee behind toes, and push hips forward. Hold 30 seconds each side.
