Whenever my back or hip flexors started bugging me on a walk, I’d sit down on a bench or curb and reset with this 👇
Steps:
1️⃣ Sit down + lean back slightly
2️⃣ Find your tube: breathe 360° so diaphragm, pelvic floor + abs connect
3️⃣ Reach your p***c bone forward (turns on lower abs without tensing → releases low back)
4️⃣ Spread shoulders + fingers → reach one hand out, press into it with the other
5️⃣ Feel your underarm switch on (the side reaching forward) and connect it with your opposite hip
6️⃣ If your core is on + back feels expanded, lighten the opposite leg (from the hand pressing forward). If your core lights up, lift the leg fully—keep your knee out ✅
Don’t:
❌ Pull your shoulders back
❌ Tense your t**h
❌ Let your torso shift when you lift
❌ Let your knee cave in (inner thigh compensating)
👉 If something feels off, go back to the basics: expand your back, reach your p***c bone forward, and reset. You can even just think about lifting your leg—this alone helps your stabilizers switch on.
And if your hip flexors try to take over, simply brush them out so your core can do the work.
💬 Let me know how it goes—I love hearing when this clicks for people! 💗
👉 Save this to try out on your next walk 👣
