Back Pain? Stiff / Sore Hips & Pelvis? Tight Hamstrings? Knee Pain? Do You sit a lot? Working at a desk, or driving? Or do you stand all day? Well, your pelvic girdle is the main part of your body in all of the above.
Your Hips are the bridge between your upper and lower body. They are at the centre of your body's movement.
Right there within the well of your hips and lower spin is the psoas major muscle (pronounced so-az) one of the two muscles that make up the iliopsoas complex.
Often called the "mighty psoas" for the important role it plays in your movement and stability.
The psoas is the only muscle in the human body connecting the upper body to the lower body.
The muscle attaches to the vertebrae of the lower spine, moves through the pelvis and connects to a tendon at the top of the femur. It also attaches to the diaphragm, so it's connected to your breathing, and upon it sits all the major organs.
A functioning psoas muscle creates a neutral pelvic alignment, stabilizes the hips, supports the lower spine and abdomen, supports the organs in the pelvic and abdominal cavity and gives you greater mobility and core strength.
When it functions well, it has the power to...
... help you achieve peak performance day after day after day.
... rapidly drop ugly body fat that stubbornly clings to your body.
... train harder, heavier and gain strength faster than you thought possible.
... hit your peak of sexual health.
... flood your mind and body with renewed energy and vigor.
Put simply, this muscle is the core of activity in your body. So, when it's out of balance or if the psoas tightens, there are serious consequences which flow throughout the body.
That's why I urge you to try these.....
