Zaichik Stretching Technique ~Clarity~ for Hip Flexors Flexibility
~Clarity~ is Zaichik Stretching Technique focusing on Rectus Femoris.
Rectus Femoris Femoris is one of the four heads of the Quadriceps Muscle. The other three being Vastus Lateralis, Vastus Medialis and Vastus Intermedius. While all four heads extend the knee, Rectus Femoris is unique, because it also flexes the hip.
Because Zaichik Stretching Techniques take advantage of multiple muscle actions on the joints, both knee and hip are recruited into the basic ~Clarity~ System as leverage and target respectively. Since most people look for greater hip extension, this action (Hip Extension) often serves as the target.
Because Zaichik Stretching Techniques take advantage of multiple muscle actions on the joints, both knee and hip are recruited into the basic ~Clarity~ System as leverage and target respectively. Since most people look for greater hip extension, this action (Hip Extension) often serves as the target.
Take a look at this Zaichik Stretching Technique in the following this video:
Frequently beginner Zaichik Stretching practitioners assume that they are progressing, since the hip extends deeper into the target. In some cases, it is not the case. The hip does extend, but the muscle does not lengthen. This has to do with two other actions of the Rectus Femoris on the hip joint. One being the lateral rotation and the other abduction.
In standard side position, rising of the knee shortens the muscle through both of these actions. For this reason, while the hip extends, the shortening of the muscle happens through other actions of the hip joint. This is seen as the knee rising due to abduction and lateral rotation of the hip joint.
In short, to make sure that you are stretching Rectus Femoris, keep the knee leveled as the hip extends.

Back pain? Bad Posture? Weak Glutes? Look at your hip flexors!
Many people attempt to "stretch the psoas" just because it hurts, or because it seems to be fashionable these days... what if psoas is suffering because of other muscles not working properly? What if we have to strengthen it instead of just stretch it? What if it is not Psoas that is the problem at all?
Tight hip flexors are a modern-day epidemic. Every time you sit, your hip flexors get used to being short in their length. And the longer time you spend sitting, the tighter your hip flexors get.
Tight hip flexors are a modern-day epidemic. Every time you sit, your hip flexors get used to being short in their length. And the longer time you spend sitting, the tighter your hip flexors get.
Having unrestricted hip flexors gives you the following benefits:
- The range of motion
- Power in your hip extensors
- Proper posture
- Neutral spinal tilt
- Back pain prevention
- Lower back injury prevention
- As well as other issues around the hip and spine.
Your body does not discriminate what you do when you sit, or where you sit.
Your body does not discriminate what you do when you sit, or where you sit. If your hips are flexed, or there is an angle between your torso and your upper leg, your nervous system begins to adjust to that length. Whether you are sitting at a dinner table, at work, on a couch or even on the toilet, makes no difference.
When it comes to your hip flexors, your nervous system only understands the following:
- Your hip flexors are in a neutral range when you stand or when you lay down in straight line.
- Your hip flexors are in short lengths when you sit or bent forward at your hips.
- Your hip flexors are in long range when you stretch them by hyperextending your hip joint.
While professional athletes get benefits of having flexible hip flexors, for variety of activities, from doing splits to doing jumps. Most fitness enthusiasts doing our EasyFlexibility Hip Flexors program use it to correct various imbalances, usually from spending a long time in a sitting position.
PSOAS is just ONE muscle! There are 6 hip flexors + 4 adductors that flex the hip!
One of the biggest hurdles to hip flexors flexibility is the proper understanding of what the hip flexors are. Unfortunately, even today most people when thinking of the hip flexors think of the Psoas. But Psoas is just one hip flexor, there are six. Plus, adductors also flex the hip of which there are four adductors, that's a total of ten muscles involved.
While all of these muscles flex the hip, they also all do something else. For example, in standing position these muscles bring your femur up, forward and over to your body.
There are no two hip flexors that do the same job. And if only one of them is tight, you will not get proper hip extension.
This means that when you stand vertically you might have a hip that is:
- Slightly adducted,
- Abducted,
- Externally rotated,
- Medially rotated,
- The knee might be slightly bent. Because one adductor Gracilis and one hip flexor Sartorius cross the knee, and they both flex it. Tensor Fascia Latte has its effect on the knee, as well, through the iliotibial band.
As you can see, proper flexibility of the hip flexors requires all six hip flexors plus four adductors to be flexible along their own lines of pull.
And that is exactly what our EasyFlexibility Hip Flexors program offers you: An ability to work on all aforementioned muscles separately assuring each muscle strength and flexibility needed to do its job in getting your hip flexors flexible!

If you are an athlete, having flexible hip flexors, gives you two huge benefits.
However, if you are an athlete, having flexible hip flexors gives you two huge benefits.
- The range of motion
- Power in your hip extensors
The more flexible are your hip flexors, the less they inhibit your hip extensors. And your hip extensors are the largest power producing muscles.
Many coaches who use our hip flexors programs understand the value of having no restriction in the anterior chain.
Dancers, gymnasts, track and field athletes, improve their jumping ability without developing any further hip extensor strength, simply by increasing their hip flexors flexibility.
Martial artists develop more powerful sidekicks and back kicks simply by increasing their hip flexors flexibility.
Of course, there are many benefits from having unrestricted hip flexors:

- You want more power in your hip extensors
- You want better posture
- You want a neutral spinal tilt

This program is special because:
Instead of focusing on all hip flexors at the same time, this program focuses on all muscles individually allowing for faster, easier and safer progression. In this program you will learn how to isolates each of the hip flexor muscles using the proprietary Zaichik Stretching Techniques. Which will help you to focus on the problematic muscle restricting the movement. This basically means, more range of motion, in a natural way, without pain, and very quickly.
This program focuses on general anatomic hip extension flexibility.
This means the movement of the hip in purely sagittal plane. No actions in coronal or transverse plane take place.
Each of the hip flexors is addressed separately, together with other muscle groups, which can restrict hip extension.
Not all hip flexors and their synergists need to be targeted the same way for every possible technique or sport.
Some skills require rotation, horizontal abduction or horizontal adduction together with extension.
While a general hip flexors program will help anyone who has tight hip flexors. It may not work as well as a specialized program, which targets the specific muscles used in the skill, working on both strength and flexibility.

For many people the use of this program is its patented Zaichik Stretching Techniques and their difference from standard stretches.
One of the biggest problem with mainstream stretching is that, if you can't stretch, you don't know what is holding you back.
In terms of the hip flexors, it can be:
- Sartorius,
- Rectus Femoris,
- Tensor Fasciae Lata,
- Pectineus,
- Psoas or Illiacus.
- It can also be upper Adductors or even Gluteus Minimus. If one is tight, the rest will not move.
Zaichik stretches allow you to get each one by itself and lengthen much faster, once you know where the problem is. The only way to experience Zaichik stretching techniques is to actually try them and watch the results.

Amazing results!
"Hip Flexors. I highly recommend this set of exercises as it targets the whole of the area of my 'stiff hips/legs'. The exercises are explained very well at the beginning of each set of movements. Having said this I haven't got through to the end yet as I progress slowly trying to ensure I am moving correctly. It is good to have two people showing the moves as sometimes a little difference can be seen in their flexibility. This helps me understand that my flexibility is going to be particular to my body. After a couple of weeks I am feeling a difference for the better. I look forward to completing all the exercises and continuing for greater flexibility. I also look forward to getting more of these sets of exercises as I believe the 'leverage' movement is the key to gaining the flexibility to our muscles. Thank you Easyflexibility/Elastic Steel for such a comprehensive range of dvd's to work my way through!" ~ Faye T.
