The hip

One thing I have become more aware of lately is the crucial importance of the hips in our body. Of course every part of the body is important, but we usually take the hips for granted.

Have you noticed often older people have back problems and most of them have a hard time bending forward or tying their shoe laces.

This is because we neglect our hips, both the muscles and the joints, by lack of proper exercises when we age. This is where martial arts come handy, as the hips is the fundamental pivot of most fighting moves. Join a karate club at any age and your hips and back will get better in no time.
