I’m currently resting on a heating pad. A new back issue showed up last week and then I experienced a weird new pain that was hard to identify. I couldn’t tell if it was from my abdomen or top of my leg. It’s such a *deep* pain.

Today, my physiotherapist knew exactly what I was dealing with. Damn hip flexors that go from the top of your leg to your back.

He worked on loosening them up and recommended applying heat tonight.

Human bodies are complicated.

I've mentioned Conor Harris before. I've found his home exercises for healthy hips to be tremendously beneficial. I just noticed that he has made a shortened version of his course available for free on his website. Just fill out your email address and you'll get a PDF with links to videos explaining how to do each of the 5 exercises in this shortened routine.
