Letters From Lisa

The unsung heroes

9/19/2021

The amazing thing about the human body is that it does SO many great things automatically without us even thinking about it!

Sometimes it takes a bit of reflection to appreciate how our bodies work. More specifically, what movements the body does day in and day out to keep us functioning. This is human kinetics or the study of how the body moves.

And this is totally my shtick!

The hip for example, is so good at its job that we sometimes miss if it isn't working properly especially with the movements I talk about in this week's video. We can compensate by using the spine or twisting the pelvis to get the movements to "work".

Take this time now to connect to your own hips with these specific movement patterns!
Old reliable.

A constant team player.

Unwavering devotion to get you from point A to point B.

Hip flexion and extension are the unsung heroes of the hips!

I hope you enjoy this week's video. If you do, please like the video and share it with anyone who you think might benefit from some concentrated attention in their hips!

I am here to support you in your physical activity journey. AND by learning about how your own body works, connecting the dots of what works and doesn't, you will find increased ease in your body AND your physical activity and exercise routines.

Stay well and happy moving,
Lisa
