To have a healthy spine, you must have every joint move adequately and properly.
For example, if you have a spinal segment that is stiff, then it can result in compensation or even instability at another segment of the spine. So this is the importance of having each segment of the spine move properly.

If you find a segment of the spine that is stiff, you can use a band to provide feedback and bring attention to that area to assist with mobilization of the segment.

You can also perform this technique on various segment to assist with mobility.

I would recommend 5 reps for 5 second holds with 1-2 sets per area.

In this video, I combine two of my favorite and most effective hip mobility techniques: Hip CARs with a mobilization using a band.

If you’ve checked out any of my hip videos, you would have most likely stumbled across hip CARs (controlled articular rotations). These are essentially an exercise consisting of a very specific type of hip circle that I use for a warm-up, mobility, and general hip health.

However, you may sometime get pinch points (painful parts of the movement) in the joint.

I have used “hip mobilizations” in previous videos where I use a monster band or a belt to help perform a “joint mobilization” which allows for improved space in the joint and results in more usable space, decreased pain, and more motion.

This exercise is a “mobilization with movement,” and it’s one of the most effective ways to get a joint both moving and feeling better.

Check out the video with one of the absolute best and “bang-for-your-buck” hip exercises that I have utilized to help my hips feel EVEN better.
