Video 420 | Isometric Hip Boost: External Rotation (15 minutes) with Lauren Eirk
Hips
•
10-Apr-2023
If you need a quick boost, this 15-minute bodyweight routine will help you strengthen muscles that cross the hip to perform external rotation, such as the gluteals, piriformis, superior and inferior gemelli, obturators, and abductors to name a few.
These are also muscles that commonly extend the hip and help with lower back pain. We will use a sponge ball and thigh band for resistance in several of the exercises to create the isometrics.
This routine can be done anywhere, anytime. It can reduce fatigue after exercise, as a prevention from injury, and to help manage your muscle strength. This can also be used as a warm-up or as a workout in itself. Isometrics are the precursor to adding any load and challenge to our body.
