If your go-to fix for hip pain during squats is stretching the hip flexors—stop and rethink it.

Tightness is often a symptom, not the root cause.

Overstretching might actually reduce stability, making things worse instead of better.

Way too many people are constantly stretching their hip flexors because they assume tightness is the problem.

But pinching or discomfort in the front of the hip during squats might not be tight hip flexors at all.

➡️ 𝙄𝙩 𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙗𝙚:

✔️ Hip joint mechanics (impingement)
✔️ Poor pelvic control
✔️ Weak or inhibited glutes
✔️ Anterior pelvic tilt

Stretching won’t fix the root cause if tightness isn’t actually the problem. In some cases, it could even make things worse.𝗪𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻❓

𝗧-𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵 - 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝘀 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆.

If extension disappears as soon as load is added, it means the spine doesn’t yet have the strength to resist flexion — and that’s where performance (and tolerance) breaks down.

This is where exercise selection matters.

Not all upper-back exercises load thoracic extension in the same way.

Horizontal row variations, and especially the Pendlay row, are super effective for this.

Starting each rep from a dead stop removes momentum and forces the client/patient to:

✔ Actively create thoracic extension
✔ Hold it as the bar leaves the floor
✔ Resist collapsing as load increases

You don’t just need thoracic extension mobility — you need the strength to hold it under load.

But for many clients and patients, there’s a step before loading that often gets skipped:

👉 They can’t actually feel or actively create thoracic extension in the first place.

If someone can’t sense where the thoracic spine is, or doesn’t know how to extend there without dumping into the lumbar spine, adding load only reinforces compensation.

That’s why the first step is:
• Learning to differentiate thoracic extension from lumbar extension
• Actively extending the T-spine with intent
• Getting familiar with recruting those muscles - accessing that position before loading

Once that awareness is there, strength will make it usable.📍 𝗪𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗼 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗰 𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗮𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱 : https://rehab-u.com/thoracic-extension-strength-for-the-deadlift/

Ou du moins... pas correctement.

La gestion de la douleur est facile.

La structure, la progression et le retour à la performance ?

Cela nécessite un plan, pas seulement des rendez-vous.

Et c'est là le problème 👇
La rehab séance par séance ne te permet pas de réfléchir, de planifier ou de programmer.

On finit donc par prendre des raccourcis.

Les clients/patients stagnent.

Et tu t’épuises, même si tu sais que ce n'est pas la bonne solution.

Si tu as déjà ressenti cette tension, ce n'est pas toi le problème.

C'est le modèle.

Je décompose tout cela étape par étape dans un atelier gratuit sur la manière de créer des programmes de rehab personnalisés et périodisés, ainsi qu'une carrière qui les soutient réellement.

Recurrent ankle sprains and chronic ankle instability are associated with neuromuscular deficits, reduced capacity to absorb ground reaction forces and persistent plantar flexion weakness.

Using a wedge is a great example of a way to force the ankle to produce plantar flexion while controlling inversion, exposing the ankle combined positions and movements, not just neutral or linear ones.

These variations help:

✅build strength in vulnerable positions
✅ improve dynamic joint stabilization
✅and increase confidence on uneven ground

Or at least… not properly.

Pain management is easy.

Structure, progression, and return-to-performance?

That requires a plan — not just appointments.

And that’s the problem 👇
Session-to-session rehab doesn’t pay you to think, plan, or program.

So corners get cut.
Clients plateau.
And you burn out — even though you know better.

If you’ve ever felt this tension, you’re not the problem.

The model is.

I’m breaking this down step-by-step in a free workshop on how to build personalized, periodized rehab programs — and a career that actually supports them.
