How to do it
- Hip Hinge Exercise DescriptionThe hip hinge is a fundamental movement pattern that involves bending at the hips while keeping the spine neutral.
- It is commonly used in exercises like deadlifts, kettlebell swings, and good mornings.
- To perform a hip hinge: Starting Position: Stand with your feet hip-width apart and a slight bend in your knees.
- Hinge at the Hips: Push your hips back while maintaining a straight back.
- Your torso should lean forward, and your chest should stay up.
- Lowering Phase: Continue to hinge until your torso is nearly parallel to the ground, or until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings.
- Return to Standing: Drive through your heels and thrust your hips forward to return to the starting position.
