ANY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR UNEVEN TIGHT HIPS?
I've noticed this in my own practice and in working with clients that every side is different and one is always a bit more flexible than the other. I would recommend a few yoga poses but begin with a warmup or after your usual workout. You may like to try Half Pigeon (Eka Pada Rajakapotasana), Runner's Lunge/Lizard and Garland Pose (Malasana) for more open hips. Try to hold the poses without fidgeting. Work up to holding it for five breaths (about 60 seconds). Progress takes patience and time. Be humble enough to respect the process, practice frequently and you will make progress. Your muscle imbalances and tight hips will ease over time. Stay the course.
