I'm so sorry about your hip. I'm with you on continuing your workouts...sometimes it works itself out with stretching, etc. If it keeps hurting, go see your doctor. I tried to just "keep walking" it off and found out it was a serious condition. Better to be safe, then sorry! Good luck. :0) 

Im pretty sure it's a CPPD flare-up. I get crystalized calcium in between my joints. It's extremely painful but sometimes it's helpful to walk on a treadmill. It loosens up the hip joint a bit. I'll start with that and do upper body weights. On my way now. Thank u for your concern..💜💜💜💜 

pray you get better. mus hubby has been having fits with his right hip. got a MRI done. has a mini fracture, bone bruise, and water in the joint. no clue how or why but as we age strange things happen.  

Thank u sweet Georgia Peaches. I hope your hubby feels better. Just got home from gym and did elliptical and treadmill, as well as weights on upper body, and feel alittle looser. 💪💜 

sounds like you got this, ☺️ pain makes it more challenging. keep up the good work. hoping the joints loosen up. 

Try some gentle stretches. Lay on your back, bend one leg, and cross it over your body at the hip, then do the other leg. I find this helps relieve sciatic and hip pain. 

I have PT exercises for the hip if you are interested. Seems like you have found a solution. Be well. :0) 

Thank u Binkytexas. What cha got? I'm open to anything that helps! I do feel slightly better so I'm glad I went to gym.💜💜💜 

You can look each one of these up online and find pictures. These stretches are designed to help the hip and help muscles that support the hip (like your glutes and hamstrings). If you need pictures I got from PT, message me your email and RM will scan them into the computer tomorrow. Start without bands for 3 sets of 10 (30 rep if you can do all at once). Increase to 50 rep when it gets easier. When THAT gets easier, start adding bands of increasing difficulty. I haven't gotten to past 50 yet. -hip extension 30 rep no band (increase to 50, then start using bands) -hip abduction 30 rep no band (increase to 50, then start using bands) -raised lunges 30 rep each leg (I do on a coffee table, increase to 50), this one does not use bands -bridging 30 rep (increase to 50), this one does not use bands -supine clamshell WITH band 30 rep each leg (increase to 50) -supine clamshell WITH band 30 rep both legs at same time (increase to 50) -supine piriformis stretch/hip ER 90 count each leg (or set timer for 90 seconds) -hamstring stretch with strap 90 count each leg (or set timer for 90 seconds) 

I pray the pain ends soon 

-Single Knee to Chest with strap 30 rep each leg (increase to 50) -Supine Active Straight Leg Raise 30 rep each leg (increase to 50) -Hand Heel Rock 30 rep (increase to 50, planking prep) -Quadraped Alternate Leg 20 rep (increase to 50, planking prep) -TheraBand Knee Extension 30 rep (increase to 50) 

You still show up at the gym and do what you can 💪🏻 

Take care of yourself, Diana! 

-Monster Walk with band (3 sets of 30 seconds) -Lateral Walk with band (3 sets of 30 seconds) -Marching in place, feet barely touch floor (3 sets of 30 seconds) -Balance Tandem OR lift leg (3 sets of 30 seconds) -Sit to Stand 30 rep (increase to 50) -Seated hip Fexion 30 rep (increase to 50)  

Last one: is more the core. Modified planking on a chair or table (3 sets of 30 seconds). Sorry the spacing is bad on this post...I couldn't get it to space better. Do what feels good. Don't feel like you have to do ANY of it. I hope it helps and KEEP MOVING friend. XOXO :0) 

Great job keeping up with your goals. at the end of the day results are seen when we do what we must even though the circumstances aren’t ideal. You got this 😎 

Gz9gjg and Binkytexas. Thank u for stretches. I'm gonna try them. 💜💜 

Bob & Brad on YouTube have a whole series on hip pain and while they're a little goofy, the information is solid, including figuring out whether it's muscle, tendons, joints, etc. Most important, when to see the doc. Good thoughts for you! 

Good to know. TY for sharing.♥️ 

Thank u Katsolo. I will check it out.💜 Thanks to all for comments. Love the positive suggestions and concern. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
