Hip flexor stretches

[Scrumhalf]

I need to get some suggestions for good hip flexor stretches. Maybe it is age, but I am feeling that over the last couple of years, I am unable to really relieve the tightness in my hip flexors and it is affecting my flexibiliy.

Any suggestions, especially from you MMA guys who spend a lot of time with this? Getting old blows... :noo:

Buy "Becoming a supple leopard".
The author knows his stuff. I have browsed through it, but unfortunately I bought it right before the beginning of this semester. I will read it this summer.

Thanks Turbo.. I'll check it out. Truth be told, I am always wary of guys who have drunk the Crossfit koolaid, but this book is getting a lot of good reviews at Amazon.

You're tight, hurt, sore?

We have so many that we do.

Tight, not sore. ROM is not as good as it used to be.

Tight, not sore. ROM is not as good as it used to be.

That's extremely important for us; so we train it a lot.

More mobility, especially in our shoulders, torso, and hips equates to rubber man, think BJ Penn...
