3. The Banded Hip March
The Banded Hip March is an exercise where you are standing upright with your feet about hip-distance apart with your chest lifted. You want a mini resistance band around the balls of both feet and you want to engage your core.
Bring your right knee up and out in front of you and stop when it reaches the height of your hips. Some people may not be able to lift up that high, and that’s fine, but you should make that your goal to get to that point eventually. Your hip flexors will definitely respond in the legs that you lift. That’s how you know that this is such a good exercise for hip flexors.
You want to focus on keeping your foot directly under your knee and you want your core to be engaged. You can do 5 to 7 reps on one leg and then switch it off and do 5 to 7 on the other leg as well.
