Odd leg problem

[Moofe]

Recently I have been having problems with my left leg at the top near to my hip; everytime I lift my leg to do a kick i feel something come out of place, i have to straighten my leg to get it to click back.
Its not really a painfull feeling just rather unpleasent.
Have any of you had this problem? How did you deal with it?
Thanks

Is it just like a dull click?

Yeah

Not sure about that one, but when I do side leg lifts my hip pops. But supposedly it's natural and'll work itself out with time. Might be the same case for you. It is in a joint right? o_O

i experience that shit all the time. how flexible are you?

[Ashtar]

I get that shit too, and I'm not very flexible or athletic. Those gurus always seem to perscribe joint rotations and shit for that kind of thing, the 'work the kinks out' concept. I have no idea if that works all the time, I tend to try that stuff and it comes back regardless.

[phofasho]

well i THINK (not 100% sure..but still pretty sure) it has to do with the joint itself being very tight with not much 'give'..stretching and rotating the hip flexors will loosen those muscles and ligaments up..therefore there wont be as much tension..less chance of the femur popping all over the place in :P

if i'm wrong, please correct me. but i'm pretty sure it has to do with your hip flexor muscles

A lot of people get this. Strengthening, stretching, or just 'taking it easy' for a while should solve the problem.

oh cool thanks guys, im really unflexible.
It all started with a cheat 720 before i had warmed up too :|
