In the Hip ROM setup, which statement is NOT true?

• A. It uses a supine position with feet in straps.
• B. It focuses on hip range of motion, with emphasis on hamstrings, adductors, glutes, and low back.
• C. It requires a standing start.
• D. It incorporates single-leg control.

Answer: (C)

Hip ROM focuses on isolating hip mobility while keeping the pelvis stabilized. Lying supine with the feet in straps lets the leg move through hip-driven ranges with precise control, without the added balance demands of standing. This setup emphasizes the hip joint and surrounding muscles—hamstrings, adductors, glutes—and supports the low back's stabilization. Incorporating single-leg control further challenges unilateral stability and control. The statement about requiring a standing start isn’t part of the Hip ROM setup because standing would introduce balance and stance demands that shift the emphasis away from isolated hip ROM and pelvic stability.
