  • Supine Hip External Rotation (ER) PAILs/RAILs with Stick

    Strengthen and expand your hip external rotation end range with PAILs and RAILs in a supine position using a stick, PVC pipe, or dowel — the external rotation counterpart to the supine IR drill, using the same accessible, grounded setup to passively achieve hip ER end range and then train the tis...

  • Supine Hip Internal Rotation (IR) Pulses

    Develop bilateral hip internal rotation strength and awareness with this supine IR pulse drill — a simple, accessible movement that uses a yoga block between the knees to create a clear, tactile cue for internal rotation, training both hips to rotate inward simultaneously in a stable, grounded po...

  • Supine Hip Abduction ISO

    Build adductor and inner thigh strength with this supine hip abduction isometric — a simple, accessible drill that uses a yoga block between the knees to create direct, targeted isometric tension through the adductors, training the muscles responsible for hip stability and medial knee control in ...

  • Supine Hip Abduction ISO

    Build hip abductor strength and lateral hip stability with this supine abduction isometric — a simple, effective drill that uses a non-elastic stretch strap around the feet or ankles to create direct, targeted isometric resistance through the hip abductors, training the muscles responsible for la...

  • Supine Hip Flexion Passive Range Hold (PRH)

    Develop active hip flexion strength at passive end range with this supine passive range hold drill — a deceptively demanding movement that challenges the hip flexors to generate and sustain maximum force at the very limit of available range, building the active capacity that most people never tra...

  • Fig.4 Hip Flexion Lift-offs

    Develop active hip flexion strength in a figure 4 base with this lift-off drill — a precise, demanding movement that isolates the hip flexors of the straight leg in a crossed position, challenging them to generate and sustain force in their shortened, most compressed state rather than chasing hei...

  • Seated Hip Flexion Passive Range Holds (PRH)

    Develop active hip flexion strength at passive end range with this seated passive range hold drill — the upright counterpart to the supine hip flexion PRH, delivering the same powerful end range stimulus to the hip flexors in a seated position that adds the challenge of maintaining postural integ...
