After a grueling workout the last thing you might want to do is take a few minutes to stretch. If your usual go-to for recovery is the foam roller, try adding these moves (before or after a workout) for additional hip mobility. Opening your hips can help improve recovery by providing circulation in your legs and alleviating back pain with more supple hips. Allowing your hips to move through a full range of motion keeps the body balanced, giving us the strength to find full extension as we move through explosive movements during WODs. Try these four hip-opening poses after your next workout.
