What is the springload and reps for Hip ROM #6 Single Leg Series?

• A. 2-3 springs; 15-20 reps
• B. 0.5-1.5 springs, usually 1 red; 8-10 reps each version.
• C. 1-2 springs; 5-7 reps
• D. 0 springs; 8-10 reps

Answer: (B)

The key idea here is using a light load to train hip mobility and control without overpowering the pelvis or spine. For Hip ROM #6 Single Leg Series, a very light resistance lets you move through the hip range with proper form and cues, focus on alignment, and build neuromuscular coordination. Using about half to one and a half springs, usually a single red spring, provides that gentle support you need. Repeating 8–10 reps for each variation gives enough cycles to reinforce movement patterns without fatiguing the hip stabilizers or altering technique. Heavier springs would make it hard to maintain form and could create compensations, while fewer reps wouldn’t give enough practice, and no springs would remove the necessary feedback and engagement of the hip musculature.
