One of my favorite coaches, Mark Rippetoe, uses this to his lifters» advantage when squatting, since a pair of taut hamstrings will usually be coupled with a much smaller hip angle, potentiating much more hip drive to finish the lift.

In contrast, they also found that EMG amplitude was greater at with reduced hip angle in the supine slide - board curl, prone leg curl, Nordic curl, 1 - leg glute bridge, horizontal back extension, and back extension.

Several dynamometry studies have been performed to explore the way in which hamstrings EMG amplitude changes in various hip angles and have generally reported that changing joint angle has little or no effect (Lunnen et al. 1981; Worrell et al. 2001; Mohamed et al. 2002; Guex et al. 2012).

Of note is that Zebis et al. (2012) found that hamstrings EMG amplitude was greater with increasing hip angle in the Romanian deadlift, 2 - hand kettlebell swing and seated leg curl.

Peak hip angles also do not differ between straight barbell and hexagonal barbell deadlifts.

The hip extension moment arm length of the adductor magnus changes with hip angle and it is a more effective hip extensor than either the hamstrings or gluteus maximus when the hip is flexed.

Intervention — any acute study assessing peak hip angles in the sagittal plane during the split squat exercise

Anatomical factors may include high or low arches, hip angles or hypo / hyper mobility in foot and ankle joints.

Play around and find a hip angle allows you to pull your knee the furthest - try bringing your knee out to the side rather than straight toward your head.

When people refer to «hinging» as it relates to squats, they're referring to the initial «break» coming from changing the hip angle when they begin the movement.

Peak hip angle is more acute during the back squat than the front squat, Smith machine squat or deadlift.

BUT if you happen to have bucket seats or don't have this adjustments, you can attempt to use a pillow placed under your sit bones and your low back to try to improve your hip angle.

Choose a hip angle and hold it there.

They reported that front leg peak hip angle was always more acute than the rear leg peak hip angle.

Altering the hip angle alters the length of the gluteus maximus, hamstrings and adductor magnus muscles, while altering knee angle alters the length of the hamstrings muscles only.

After the hip angle measurement, initial knee angle was recorded using a goniometer with measurements taken using the following landmarks; the lateral malleolus, the lateral epicondyle, and the center of the vastus lateralis.

The angle, to which the right hip was stretched, was measured and this hip angle was used for all subsequent ROM measurements during each experimental condition.
