so feet pointing outwards is a sign of tight hips?

what are the best hip stretches for inflexible people?

I'm not sure exactly but it all works in conjunction with tight hamstrings. My hip flexors, piriformis muscles, and hamstrings were tight. Sitting a lot and with bad posture also shortens and tightens the hip flexors. What the book YouMadd recommended was sitting with a box squat. You can lean and everything but it's all about keeping your back straight and flat.

What happened to me was my arches collapsed. Years of walking wrong did that and tightened my calves, hamstrings and all of those muscles because of the imbalance. The more you incorrectly walk, the less you're keeping your feet strong.

Oh and collapsed arches = a predictor of an acl tear. Cuz knees don't get to functioning correctly.

Carpel tunnel syndrome is due to a pelvic tilt and that also shifting your shoulder forwardat an angle and you'll feel it in your hands and/or upper arm.

At times, I'd feel weird ish in my forearm before it got to my hands. Wasn't constant though.

Happens to people who are seated a lot probably causing them to arch their backs leaning their shoulders forward.

To think, all of this started with feeling weird ish in my groin and a little in my hip.

As well as my ish being on straight mode.

The more you pronate, the more you could be possibly twisting your pelvis. The stronger your back the more muscles are trying to counteract this movement. So it takes longer or faster due to these factors : the amount of probation due to shoes that aren't flat, how much you walk/run, strength of your back due to exercise or nonexercise and bad movement patterns/habits.

I've been using these minimalist sandals and hot damn if I walk around for a good while my feet on some wtf ish lol. I think working with the balance board will help the mobility in my ankles and strengthen the foot and ankle altogether to speed the process a little bit.

That's why I love my vibram shoes. They helped with my shin splints of regular shoes. I corrected my slouching and my palms not facing my hips with various exercises. My feet don't point straight when I walk and I noticed when I've been on treadmill and watching my reflection. I always thought that was weird seeing my feet go out in 45 degree angle.

Luckily, my mother already has one of these balls. Too simple.

Another way of titling this thread would be the get a bigger ass (for women), help develop your core and be lean and flexible as fukk thread.

I have to say it's pretty crazy how even the thinnest of sandals isn't exactly equal to barefoot. I can instantly notice a difference even if it may be relatively small. Especially when trying to strengthen entire legs.

Did a 2/3 mile Vibram run today attempting to keep an equal stride length and adjust my speed with forward lean like the guy in the video. Lower back was killing me when I was done, not sure what I was doing wrong.

I ran on grass, I am gonna do in on flat concrete next time.

I haven't gotten that far tbh, but I wouldn't think too much cuz I feel like most of that youll do without noticing. Keeping your gait under and behind you is what you should focus on more I think. Plus addressing all other stuff (as in getting that mobility back in your hips and everywhere) that might have you feeling that way. I'm obviously no expert, but its something to consider on why you might be feeling that way. And dudes always mention a transition of walking/running that way til you get used to it as your body gets used to the way it wants to work.

Id start with the walking first to then make the running just the obvious extension of walking.
