Planet earth!? That's a bold statement, I know. But I've been where you are - looking for hip alignment exercises to get my hips more level. I've experimented with HUNDREDS of exercises for this exact purpose.

Let me save you the time and energy, yeah? Those other exercises won't work. The human body is not a computer. It's a living, breathing and dynamic organism. If we want better hip alignment, we need exercises that bring the whole body back into alignment.

Hip Alignment Exercise 1 - Glute Conversation

This is one of my favorite exercises in the world. By placing the pelvis into a good position and keeping the feet hip-width apart, the body is placed in an aligned, healthy and neutral position.

Hip Alignment Exercise 2 - Shoulder Reset

Yo Maks, why are you giving me shoulder exercises? Well, because the shoulders affect the position of the hips... A LOT. The shoulders attach to the rib cage which attach to the pelvis.

Hip Alignment Exercise 3 - Sitting Block Squeeze

The last exercise to align the hips is the sitting block squeeze. This exercise targets the hip flexors - the other major muscle group that surround the hips.

Conclusion and Programming

I recommend doing this exercise as an entire workout. The workout shouldn't take longer than 20 minutes. I suggest performing the workout at least 3 times a week.
