Tight Hips



Hey Readers, 

I'm sure you guys have seen the flyers but our Fit for 5K starts next Monday!  If you haven't heard, it is a 6 week running program intended to get you in the best shape possible for a 5K.  Whether your goals are to increase your time or just to finish.  We can help you achieve that during your runs and in the weight room.  We will even have weekly group runs to make it more exciting and fun.

That first week of running might leave your body sore and muscles tight.  I find that my hips become the most sore after a long run.  Apart from using the foam roller, here are a few stretches to help relieve your soreness and loosen those hips up.  I would suggest doing 3 sets and holding each stretch for 30-45 seconds.  Ask your JOHO staff how you can incorporate the foam roller into your stretching time as well.

Having tight hips is a common problem! If you want to increase flexibility and prevent discomfort, these 8 stretches will help.:
