Hip mobility: the foundation of movement!

The hip is one of the most important joints in the body, responsible for connecting the trunk to the lower limbs. When your mobility is limited, your body needs to compensate - and this generates overload on your knees, lower back and even ankles 😣

👇 Why keeping your hips moving is essential:

Improve performance in training and physical activities 🏋️‍♀️

Reduce lower back and leg pain 🦵

Increase range of motion and prevent injury 🚫

Makes everyday tasks like bending or tying shoes easier 👟

💡 Handy tip: include exercises like 90/90, hip bridge mobility, and controlled internal/external rotations. A few minutes a day makes a difference!

✨ Taking care of mobility is investing in freedom of movement and quality of life.

Hamstrings are a group of three muscles located at the back of our thighs, which can be divided into two more-or-less symmetrical parts: medial and lateral. All of them start at the ischial tuberosity, but they end at the opposite sides of the below-knee area.

In the medial group, we have the semitendinosus and semimembranosus muscles, which pass the knee and end at the tibia.

In the lateral group, we have the biceps femoris, which passes the knee and ends at the fibula. While the main bulk of this muscle (called the long head) starts at the same place as the other hamstrings, there is also a shorter part of this muscle (called the short head) which starts at the femur itself.

How your Patella works ⚙️

The patella (kneecap) plays a crucial role in knee biomechanics by increasing the lever arm of the quadriceps tendon. 💪

This simple mechanical model demonstrates the effect:

pulling the same force on the tendon produces significantly more torque at the knee joint when the patella is present.

Understanding this principle helps explain why the patella is essential for efficient knee extension and overall lower limb function.
