Hip Hinge – Functional Movement Pattern

All right guys, next one here is the hip hinge. Really important to know that the squat is not a hinge and the hinge is not a squat. They are different movement patterns. So for the hinge, big thing here, we’re initiating the movement at my hips, bringing my hips back, loading my hamstrings and my glutes here. I can feel a light stretch in my hamstrings, bringing my hips back through. Really loading that posterior chain here, keeping my back in spine neutral and coming all the way through.
