Stability starts at the hips👇
Exercise of the Week: Clamshell
The clamshell teaches your hips how to stabilize, which plays a huge role in how your entire body moves and feels.
Your hips help control your knees, support your low back, and keep you balanced when you walk, climb stairs, stand, or shift direction. When those muscles aren’t doing their job well, other areas often have to compensate.
That’s when discomfort, instability, or frustration can start to show up.
The clamshell helps rebuild that support in a simple, approachable way.
Over time, this can help you:
• Improve hip stability
• Support your knees and low back
• Move with more balance and control
• Build a stronger, more reliable foundation
It may look small, but exercises like this teach your body how to support you properly.
And those are the skills that make movement feel easier, not just in workouts, but in everyday life.
