Overhead Squat Mobility: Part 2 of 5 (Hips)

The next link in the overhead squat mobility chain is the hips. If there is restriction around the join of the hip there can be a lack of flexion of the hip (closing motion) and the femurs will not be able to angle out correctly to enable knees to track over or outside of the toes. Really this means that there will be a lack of depth and/or your torso won’t sit up as high as it should at the bottom of the squat. Check out these tips to open those hips!
