I am calling all desk workers to read on if you want to undo the effects of sitting all day, because these three stretches are effective and essential, and could just save your hips.
The hip flexor muscles run down the front of the body between the hip bones and thighs and help you lift your legs up, hinge forward at the hips and assist with movement like running, bending, jumping, or walking properly. When contracted or shortened, the distance between the thigh and torso decreases, like when sitting.
