Dr Martin Khoury is no stranger to the podcast and his expertise have already been shared in previous deep dive episodes on the lower leg and knee but as he will tell you: "The hip joint is his favourite joint of the body". His enthusiasm and knowledge of the subject matter is unmatched.

We had a fantastic conversation covering:

• Hip Joint Anatomy and movement
• Muscular relationships and the importance of each muscle group
• How the hip impacts our running motion and the multiple roles it plays
• Common hip injuries and how to know what you may be potentially suffering from
• The relationship between hip pain and back pain

This was one of those episodes full of golden nuggets and tips to healthier hip joints. As you can hear, the hip joint / pelvis is a complex area of the body and the issues it presents with are often not straight forward. As runner we need strong , mobile hips that can withstand the repetitive load of running. Work on these proactively and it will change your running.
