Hip Flexors

These muscles work together to flex the hip joint, bringing your thigh closer to your abdomen. They also help stabilize the pelvis during movements and contribute to maintaining proper posture. One of the main hip flexors is the Psoas muscle - it starts in the lumbar spine in your low back, travels across the pelvis and attaches to your femur (leg)
