What is the main focus of the Hip ROM Series?

• A. Supine feet-in-straps work focused on hip range of motion.
• B. Supine feet-in-straps work focused on hip range of motion, hamstrings, adductors, glutes, low back, and single-leg control.
• C. Standing cardio-driven hip mobility.
• D. Seated hip abduction.

Answer: (B)

The focus is on integrated hip mobility with full-body control in a supine, feet-in-straps setup. This approach improves hip range of motion while actively engaging the hamstrings, adductors, glutes, and the lower back, all while challenging stability through single-leg control. The supine position with straps allows safe, controlled movements through the hip joint and creates supportive cues that recruit multiple muscle groups together, promoting coordinated movement and longer-lasting mobility. That broader engagement matters because hip mobility isn’t just about moving the joint; it’s about how the surrounding muscles and the core work together to control motion. The other options miss this full picture: standing cardio-driven hip mobility prioritizes cardiovascular effort over joint and stability work; seated hip abduction focuses on a single movement pattern without developing the same range and neuromuscular coordination; and the option mentioning only hip ROM neglects the simultaneous involvement of the surrounding muscles and stability training that the series emphasizes.
