Hip Mobility

[tkav1980]

I figured Id post this here because it seems to be an issue when I squat. I use a pretty wide stance with my toes pointed slightly out. weather its 135 or 425 on my back I have trouble breaking parallel. My hips feel tight on the outside then I squat down. they dont seem to want to allow me to go much deeper than parallel. Can anyone recommend a solution?

DeFranco's Limber 11?

I just started it. One movement is no bueno - roll-overs into V-sits. Too much stress on my neck, otherwise I think it is solid and might help you.

Oh yeah...He is in your neck of the woods.

DeFranco's limber 11 is awesome.

If you're short on time though, banded distraction on each hip for 2 minutes Nd pigeon stretch hve always been good for me.
