Why do your hips feel so stiff after sitting—even if it’s just for a little while? Most people think it’s the amount of time they sit, but the real problem might be how they’re sitting in the first place.

In this video, I break down one of the worst sitting habits that silently wrecks your hips, glutes, and lower back over time. If you’ve ever sunk into a soft couch and then struggled to stand up without feeling tight or weak, you know what I’m talking about.

I’ll show you how certain positions deactivate key muscles, tighten your hip flexors and rotators, and set you up for long-term mobility issues. This can sneak up on you—even if you think you're sitting “comfortably.” You’ll see why posture matters way more than most people realize when it comes to preventing pain and stiffness in your hips and low back.

I also walk through real-life sitting setups and show you the subtle changes that can make a big difference. You’ll get a look at better alternatives you can apply at home or work—no special equipment needed.

But this isn’t just about one quick fix. It’s about how you move and position your body throughout the day, especially during everyday activities like sitting, bending, or lifting. If you're tired of nagging hip tightness or stiffness that keeps coming back, you’ll want to watch until the end.

Plus, check out the Everyday Posture Plan—a guide I put together that helps you adjust your daily postures and movements so you can reduce stress on your body, move easier, and feel better with less effort. The link is below..

If your hips feel tight, weak, or stuck, this is where you start. These small shifts can lead to bigger relief when done consistently.

And as always, Be Your Own Guarantee for your health and life.
