Doing All the Right Things… and Your Hips Still Won’t Let Go

If your hips stay tight no matter how much yoga, training, or bodywork you do, this episode will feel familiar.

In this case-study episode, Patrick walks through a moment from class that made something very clear: people aren’t stuck because they’re not trying hard enough. They’re stuck because they’re working on the body through one lane at a time, without understanding why the body is protecting itself in the first place.

You’ll hear how someone can be flexible, strong, and highly active, yet still reactive and guarded. We unpack why siloing movement, recovery, and emotional awareness slows progress, how anterior dominance keeps the nervous system on edge, and why tight hips are often a sign of protection rather than stiffness.

This isn’t about adding another fix. It’s about learning how to notice what your body is already doing and integrating awareness so change can actually stick.

If you’re a high performer who feels tight, forward-driven, and frustrated that nothing is “holding,” this episode will help you put language to what’s been happening and why effort alone isn’t the answer.
