In order to get proper depth on the squat or deadlift, one must have full hip mobility to allow for the flexion needed to get down low. In this video, I show you a hip mobility drill that you can do to increase the inferior hip capsule that can cause tightness in the squat. With just a few repetitions of the exercise shown here, you can see an instant improvement in your squatting depth and mobility of your hip. In order to perform this drill, you only need a resistance band and somewhere sturdy to anchor it. Begin by placing the band around your leg and into the crease of your hip joint on the side you feel you are lacking mobility. You want to set up your hip in the loose pack or open pack position if you want to allow for the maximum amount of impact from this drill. Trying to do mobility drills with a joint in its closed pack position is a waste of time since the capsular structures are maximally tightened around the hip. The open pack position here is about 30 degrees of hip flexion and 30 degrees of abduction. This position can be achieved by kneeling on all fours and leaning forward a bit into extension. Once set up, you want to move your body laterally away from the anchor point so you get tension and distraction of the hip joint. People often thin
