Extra-articular snapping hip syndrome is commonly associated with leg length difference (usually the long side is symptomatic), tightness in the iliotibial band (ITB) on the involved side, weakness in hip abductors and external rotators, poor lumbopelvic stability and abnormal foot mechanics (overpronation).

From here, raise the right leg to a 90 degree angle, keeping the stationary leg firmly on the ground and pelvis stable. Return right foot to meet left foot in starting position. That’s 1 rep.
The lateral rotator group is a group of six small muscles of the hip which all externally (laterally) rotate the femur in the hip joint.It consists of the following muscles: piriformis, gemellus superior, obturator internus, gemellus inferior, quadratus femoris and the obturator externus.
These muscles are aided by the gluteus maximus and the inferior portion of the adductor magnus. Hip muscles also play a role in maintaining the standing posture. These muscles work in an integrated system with muscles of the shoulder, neck, core, lower leg, and supporting muscles of the spine, to provide the ability to stand with good posture. [1]

Trainer Sandy Brockman developed this butt workout for WH readers. It uses a barbell to fire up hip thrusters, plus lengthening moves for bigger glutes, fast.
The inferior gluteal nerve is the main motor neuron that innervates the gluteus maximus muscle. It is responsible for the movement of the gluteus maximus in activities requiring the hip to extend the thigh, such as climbing stairs. Injury to this nerve is rare but often occurs as a complication of posterior approach to
Opposite arm/leg rhythm: This is just like regular walking, but you do have to be a bit more intentional. You want your regular walking rhythm (opposite arm and leg) to stay the same, even when ...
