Kettlebell lifting, and other hard training, can lead to tight hips.
Spend the day sitting, and the problem quickly becomes worse.
Enter the “Couch Stretch”.
Dr. Kelly Starrett invented – or at least recently popularized – this awesome move.
It’s one of the best stretches for tight hips.
And maybe the best part – you can get it done while you’re watching your favorite TV show! 
THE COUCH STRETCH
– Start by standing in front of a couch
– Put your back knee on the couch and keep your front leg on the ground
– Put your back foot up against the back of the couch
– Point the back toe
– Squeeze your glutes, and the glute of the up leg in particular, to stabilize your lower back and correctly position the hip joint
– With the butt squeezed, dril the front of the hip towards the ground
– Work on this daily for at least 60 seconds per side
Try doing the Couch Stretch daily for a week – 60 seconds each leg, each day – and pay attention to the change you can create.
