Gaby’s Tea Time: Stop training your hips (for now)
If your pelvis is unstable,
training hips directly is the wrong move.
Here’s why.
If you’re making a bed
and the sheet is full of creases,
you don’t start pulling from the middle.
You fix the four corners first.
Then the surface becomes flat automatically.
The body works the same way.
If your feet (your distal ends) are unstable,
the pelvis cannot stay centred
If the base is wrong
the hips will compensate
So training hips directly
just reinforces the problem
Not fixes it
The correct sequence is:
Stabilise the foot
Align the base
Then train the hips
If you skip this
you don’t build strength
You build dysfunction
Start from the ground
or don’t expect the system to hold
Many people who train heavy stuck in a pre-flexed hip position & here is how you fix from the ground up:
