Guide on how to train your hip flexors

Before starting training, you should consult your doctor or trainer.


To train your hip flexor muscles, you can do the following exercises:
* Raising your legs up. Lie on your back with your arms along your body, lift your straight legs
vertically upward, bending them at the knees. Hold the peak for a few seconds, then slowly
lower your legs back down. Repeat the exercise 10-12 times.
* Leg curl using a machine. Lie down on the machine and secure your legs in special clamps.
Bend your knees, lifting your pelvis. Hold the peak for a few seconds, then slowly lower your
body back to the starting position. Repeat the exercise 10–12 times.
* Scandinavian leg curls. Fix your legs, rest your knees, tighten your glutes and abs. Keep your
back straight throughout the entire approach, do not bend your spine. Bend your arms and hold
them in front of you at chest level. Slowly and in a controlled manner, begin to lower yourself
toward the floor. You should feel the muscles in the back of your thigh stretch. At the bottom
point, push slightly with your hands and, tensing the muscles of the back of the thigh, return to
the starting position. Start a new repetition immediately.
