Until about the age of 23 I was fairly active and involved in numerous sports. With many life changes; marriage, kids, career moves, I lost track of my priorities. I forgot what was most important to me and forgot who I was. Over the years I had really let myself go, with my weight reaching as high as 260+lbs. Finally in the spring of 2012, I knew that I had to change for both me and my family. I

This is more than just “hip flexor work.”
It is a positional control sequence built around:
* hip flexor strength
* pelvic control
* anterior core integration
* posterior chain stability
* shoulder and trunk isometric engagement
* proprioception
* balance
* end-range mobility

What I really like about this sequence is that the body is forced to stabilize before movement occurs.

That first bench isometric is not simply about lifting the leg. The body has to create tension through the entire chain while resisting pelvic dumping and lumbar extension. The posterior chain stays active while the anterior chain drives movement.

The upper body component matters too.
Holding the load while maintaining posture turns the movement into a full-system stabilization drill rather than isolated hip flexion. The shoulders, trunk, pelvis, and breathing mechanics all have to work together.

The loaded abdominal work then challenges:
* hip flexion under trunk control
* force transfer through the core
* controlled range of motion without losing pelvic positioning

The banded bench isometric adds another layer because posture now becomes reactive. The band constantly tries to pull the body out of alignment, forcing the system to organize:
* trunk stiffness 
* breathing mechanics
* pelvic positioning
* hip flexor engagement

The standing resisted knee drive is where the sequence starts to transfer into more athletic movement. Now the focus becomes:
* hip flexion strength
* balance
* foot stability
* grip integration
* proprioception
* single-leg control
* gait mechanics

The pause at the top removes momentum and forces true ownership of end-range hip flexion.

Finishing with the single-leg RDL into the anterior chain opener ties everything together by restoring movement after all the tension and loading work. The hip flexors have to lengthen while the posterior chain stabilizes.

That final sequence really becomes:
Can I create strength and still access mobility afterward? Which a lot of folks seem to miss

Awesome App, wish I would have started using this a long time ago to help improve my running form
