Show Notes

The hip is one of the most common areas in the body that people experience pain with barbell training and the position of your back and legs can either enhance or reduce your symptoms.

The three most important positions of the body to consider if you have hip pain while squatting include the:

  1. Back Angle

  2. Hip Angle

  3. Toe Angle

In this episode of the PRS Podcast, physical therapists and PRS Clinical Coaches, Drs. Rori Alter, John Petrizzo, and Alyssa Haveson discuss the influence of the back, hip and toe angle on hip pain.

The solution to hip pain while squatting is never a one-size-fits-all answer as the cause for hip pain can vary greatly from person to person. So it's important to understand that the process of reducing hip pain while squatting is trial and error and a combination of managing:

  • Body position

  • Technical execution

  • Training fatigue

  • Recovery

If all else fails, it's best to book a consultation with a rehab specialist who is knowledgeable in barbell training and sports/orthopedic injuries to help you identify and address the root cause of your hip pain.
