CrossFit Journal | "The Muted Hip"

Get With The Programming

The most powerful forces that can be generated by the human body are initiated, controlled, and dominated by the hip.

The faulty mechanics arise from inadequate training and insufficient practice of critical hip movements. We’ve named this widespread fault “muted hip function” or “MHF.”
