Athletic Injuries of the Hip Extensors

The hip extensor complex is revered as the powerhouse of the hip. Responsible for explosive running, jumping, and forward locomotion, this region plays a huge role in athletic injuries of the hip. The caveat of the hip extensor group is not only the frequency of injury to the region but the frequency of reinjury. Taking the time to assess and track any and all kinetic chain faults to this region has a huge return on investment for the athlete seeking an expedited and seamless return to sport.
