556. Wednesday Q&A: Flexibility, Tone vs. Muscle Length & Proximal Hamstring Tendinothopy

  • June 29, 2022
Welcome to Wednesday Q&A, where you ask questions and we answer them! In this Wednesday Q&A, we answer your questions about the difference between inflexibility due to the nervous system or actual range of motion and proximal hamstring tendinopathy.   Your questions:
  • Can you talk about flexibility of tissues based on the nervous system versus actual range of motion?
  • For 18 months I’ve been feeling pain in the medial part of the back of my upper thigh, just under the sit bone and a sensation that is hard to place in a deep medial part of my left buttock. Yoga seems to agitate my pain.
