Unlock Your Hip Flexors™ Revamped 2020: Can These Movements Release Tight Flexors?. Almost every movement that your body makes can be traced to your hip flexors. Whether it’s taking a step, walking, skipping, twisting, standing, reaching for something, or making love, your hip flexors play an integral role.

Your hip flexors are a group of a number of muscles that trigger a flexion movement to unite your trunk and legs. These muscles allow you to move your knee or upper hands towards the upper body. They also help you bend your torso forward from your hips.
