A 2-minute lower-body mobility routine that opens the hips and restores spinal flexibility, working posture from the ground up.
Half-kneeling hip flexor stretches go first, one side at a time, lengthening the front of the hip that sitting keeps short. The deep squat sit then opens hips, ankles, and lower back together. Cat cow finishes by mobilizing the spine through flexion and extension.
Posture is often diagnosed at the shoulders but caused at the hips. Tight hip flexors tilt the pelvis forward and force the upper body to compensate. Working the hips toward neutral changes how the whole body stacks above them.
