Hurdle Work is Not Only for Hurdlers www.ussportscamps.com/tips/running/hurdle-work-is-not-only-for-hurdlersAt Oberlin College we have made great progress with our runners through increasing their athleticism. We have found their biomechanics and running form is better, particularly late in races when they are most fatigued. We have found that they recover quicker and are less susceptible to injury. Ultimately, they feel better about their running, and their running, subsequently, goes better. One method we regularly use to build athleticism in our runners in regular hurdle work. Once a week after a recovery run, the runners employ various movements over a continuous run of eight hurdles lined up one after the next. The height of the hurdles varies between 30, 33 and 36 inches. The athlete perform various frontward, sideways and backwards walks and skips over and under the hurdles.

www.tuneupfitness.com/blog/hip-pain-solutions-avoid-common-hip-myths-try-these-hip-strengthening-exercisesThe hip is one of the most important joints in the human body— a source of stability and mobility when it’s healthy and functional; hip pain and stiffness when it’s not. Despite its central role in our ability to move through the world confidently and safely, it remains one of the most misunderstood anatomical structures. Myths about what is “good” for your hips are so embedded in popular culture that people in gyms, yoga studios, and other fitness settings overuse and misuse their hips for years, causing irreversible damage that leaves them with few treatment options.

Asian Squat holds for 30 seconds to several minutes done grease the groove throughout the day are excellent for hip health and flexibility. This is what I've done.

The Practical Paradigm: Knee Drive www.elitefts.com/education/training/the-practical-paradigm-knee-drive/Most coaches use exercises that strengthen the hip flexors driven up in front of the body, which is a great way to strengthen them in general. However, kinesiology of the hip flexors in running will show that they, along with the lower abdominals, concentrically contract from behind the body and drive the thigh forward until the thigh passes underneath the body. Once the thigh passes under, they cease contracting and it is momentum that carries them forward. The more powerful the contraction behind the body, the higher the thigh will move in front of the body (2). How these muscles are contracted is based on how they are used in the particular sport. "If the training objective is to increase the dynamic strength of the hip flexor muscles to improve velocity of the swing movement, there isn't any reason to increase the strength of the muscles in a range beyond the range this activity requires” (4).
