If your hips feel stiff, unstable, or “creaky” from years of sitting, this 45-minute hip stability routine is for you. Inside, I walk you through beginner-friendly exercises that build glute strength, core stability, and confidence—without high-impact workouts or complicated equipment.

Being “cardio-fit” doesn’t guarantee a healthy spine. High-mile running can load the back with up to ~5× bodyweight per foot strike, and road cycling often locks the low back into sustained flexion—both can aggravate discs, especially with poor mechanics. Add “pretty good” nutrition that misses protein/micros and long sessions without electrolytes, and recovery stalls. Here’s how to rebuild a spine-healthy plan with smart strength, mobility, technique, and hydration.
