The "Hidden Survival Muscle" In Your Body Missed By Modern
Physicians That Keep Millions Of Men And Women Defeated By
Pain, Frustrated With Belly Fat, And Struggling To Feel
Energized Every Day…
Thursday March 09, 2023
Dear Friend,
You train hard, you eat well…it should be enough to keep you in good health and physically and
emotionally strong.
Yet, there is a danger lurking in our bodies that's not only hidden from us… but which even doctors

Yet, there is a danger lurking in our bodies that's not only hidden from us… but which even doctors
are failing to identify.
It a몭ects nearly everybody, no matter how active or sedentary you are, or how old or young you
are.
This problem a몭ects not only our body but our whole well-being.
And when I tell you what it is, you'll be shocked…
… because it's tight hip 몭exors.
You see, our hip 몭exors are the engine through which our body moves. They control balance, our
ability to sit, stand, twist, reach, bend, walk and step.
Everything goes through the hips.
And when our hip 몭exors tighten it causes a lot of problems in ordinarily healthy and active people,
like us.
Before I reveal how most people end up having tight hip 몭exors yet never realize it, let me
introduce myself.
My name is Mike Westerdal and I'm a national best-selling 몭tness author, sports nutrition specialist,
personal trainer, Iron Man magazine contributor and founder of the internet's longest-standing
strength site, CriticalBench.com.
In a moment, I'll reveal to you the 10 Key Moves you need to loosen your hip 몭exors and unlock
the hidden power in your body.
But 몭rst, let me explain just how deep-rooted the problem is.
THE SHOCKING WAYS THAT TIGHT HIPS ARE HOLDING
YOU BACK… THAT YOU WON’T BELIEVE
Here's the truth: Most people don’t realize the cause of their problems is tight
hip 몭exors.
The impact the hips had on the whole body never occurred to me until I saw
the e몭ect of tight hip 몭exors had on the health and well-being of my wife after
she gave birth.
It was only then that I truly understood the magnitude of the problem.
We're not just talking about a bit of soreness; tight hip 몭exors are the root
cause of problems such as:
Nagging joint pains in your legs, lower back or hips
Walking with discomfort
Hips locking up
Bad posture
Trouble sleeping
Sluggishness in day to day life
High Anxiety
Digestive problems
Compromised Immune System
Circulatory issues
Loss of sexual performance
Lack of Explosiveness in the gym or sports
If any of these sound familiar to you, don't worry because you're not alone.
Tight hip 몭exors a몭ect nearly everybody, but few realize the impact on your
whole body.
Again, everything 몭ows through the hips.
Think of the hips as a barometer. The health and 몭exibility of your hip muscles
Think of the hips as a barometer. The health and 몭exibility of your hip muscles
are an indicator of the strength and health of our whole body.
AND AT THE VERY HEART OF THIS IS THE "HIDDEN" MOST POWERFUL SURVIVAL
MUSCLE. WHEN THIS MUSCLE IS HEALTHY, WE ARE HEALTHY.
INTRODUCING THE BODY'S MOST POWERFUL, PRIMAL MUSCLE… …
THAT YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF
Your hips are the bridge between your upper body and lower body. They are at the center of your
body's movement.
Your hips are the bridge between your upper body and lower body. They are at the center of your
body's movement.
Sitting within the well of your hip and lower spine is the psoas major muscle, one of the two
muscles that makes up the iliopsoas.
It’s often called the "mighty" psoas (pronounced so-az) for the many important functions it plays in
the movement of your body.
The psoas is the only muscle in the human body connecting the upper body to the lower body.
The muscle attaches to the vertebrae of the lower spine, moves through the pelvis and connects to
a tendon at the top of the femur. It also attaches to the diaphragm, so it’s connected to your
breathing, and upon it sits all the major organs.
A functioning psoas muscle creates a neutral pelvic alignment, stabilizes the hips, supports the
lower spine and abdomen, supports the organs in the pelvic and abdominal cavity and gives you
greater mobility and core strength.
When it functions well, it has the power to…
… help you achieve peak performance day after day after day.
… rapidly drop ugly body fat that stubbornly clings to your body.
… train harder, heavier and gain strength faster than you thought possible.
… hit your peak of sexual health.
… 몭ood your mind and body with renewed energy and vigor.
Put simply, this muscle is the core of activity in your body. So, when it's out of balance or if the
psoas tightens, there are serious consequences which 몭ow throughout the body.
And there's one activity, in particular, that's the sworn enemy of your psoas muscle…
THE NO.1 ACTIVITY THAT'S MAKING YOU WEAKER, FATTER AND IS KILLING YOUR
SEX LIFE
It may be the most harmless activity known to man, but it's also one of the biggest dangers to your
health.
Even if you're the most active of athletes, you may still su몭er from a tight psoas due to the amount
of time you spend each day planted to a chair.
Weakness, shortening and tightness develops in the muscle through sitting for extended periods of
time, poor sleep posture and even stress and tension.
HERE ARE 3 WAYS THAT SITTING IS KILLING YOUR PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL
HEALTH:
BULGING BELLY SYNDROME
Wonder why your stomach still sticks out even though you’re hammering the
core exercises every day? It's a common myth that bulging belly is due to weak
abdominal muscles. The real cause is likely to be tight psoas muscles, which cause
the lower back to curve pushing out the stomach. When the psoas works properly it
pulls the abdomen back tucking the tummy in, giving you a strong, 몭at stomach.
FAT LOSS INHIBITOR
As the body's "몭ght or 몭ight" muscle, your psoas is deeply connected to our natural
survival instinct. It instantly tightens in moments of danger to either protect you (in
a fetal position) or help you run, fueled by the release of adrenaline. However, if
your psoas is constantly tight, it signals to the body you are in constant danger,
leading to overworking of the adrenal glands. When this happens, your immune
system su몭ers and your body automatically switches into fat storing mode in
anticipation of danger. Can’t shift that weight? Blame your hips also known as your
"survival muscle".
LACK OF SEXUAL PERFORMANCE
Sitting all day causes your hips to become stuck in a forward thrust position. This
leads to pulling on the lower back and decreased blood 몭ow and circulation
through the hips and to where it matters.
SITTING IS YOUR ENEMY IN THE QUEST TO DISCOVER PEAK HEALTH, BECAUSE OF THE WIDE-RANGING
IMPACT IT CAUSES TO YOUR MOST VITAL MUSCLE.
SITTING IS YOUR ENEMY IN THE QUEST TO DISCOVER PEAK HEALTH, BECAUSE OF THE WIDE-RANGING
IMPACT IT CAUSES TO YOUR MOST VITAL MUSCLE.
WHAT YOUR PHYSICIAN ISN'T TELLING YOU… AND WHAT
THEY DON’T KNOW
Diagnosing tight hip 몭exors is tricky.
If you've seen a therapist or physician, chances are they weren't able to
pinpoint the issue.
Buried so deep within your abdomen, it's no wonder identifying it as the root
cause of any of your symptoms is di몭cult to do.
It's why tight hip 몭exors are left undiagnosed and untreated for far too long, as
physicians look for a simpler explanation.
So understand that this it's not your fault.
However, knowing this hands you the power to 몭nally do something about it
before it's too late.
WHY "STATIC" STRETCHING ALONE ISN'T THE ANSWER
Knowing you have tight hip 몭exors is one thing.
Knowing how to 몭x your hip 몭exors is another challenge altogether.
If you trust so-called experts on Youtube and online, they'll have you believe it's simply a case of
holding a few static stretches for a period of time to try and lengthen the muscle.
Or rolling around with a tennis ball stuck to your hip (as if that will really make any di몭erence).
It takes more than a tennis ball and foam roller to unlock your hip 몭exors…and doing it wrong
could cause even MORE damage.
The reason few people manage to 몭x their hip 몭exors is simple.
It's really a hard area to reach.
If you see how the psoas is attached within your body, it's buried deep inside your core making it
tough to access. It's a hard muscle to 몭nd, let alone train.
Static Stretching Has Its Place - But The Stretch You See Above Is the Best Stretch To Do In The
Morning
So it's little wonder why trying to loosen it requires more than a simple static hip 몭exor stretch like
the one below you've probably tried before.
You've probably found you're spending (or wasting) hours of your time stretching this way only to
몭nd it's having minimal e몭ect.
That's because you need to attack the muscle from a variety of angles using a variety of exercise
techniques and modalities in order to "unpack" the muscle in the right way.
The truth is, you can learn to release your tight hip 몭exors on your own.
If you think of your psoas as a combination safe lock, there are several numbers that will unlock it
but they need to be entered in the right order.
There are a number of speci몭c movements beyond simple static stretching you can use to unlock
and loosen your hips, legs and back.
PNF STRETCHING:
PNF is an acronym for proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation. It is a technique where you
are activating a speci몭c muscle in order to relax the muscles around a joint so you can
decrease the sti몭ness around a joint.
DYNAMIC STRETCHING:
DYNAMIC STRETCHING:
This is where you are activating the muscle around a joint and moving that joint through its
full range of motion in a progressive manner. This leads to an increased range of motion
around the joint, warming up of the muscle around the joint and improved circulation
around the joint. Think of high knees or butt kicks.
3-DIMENSIONAL CORE STABILITY EXERCISES:
With these exercises we are targeting the muscle in all planes of movement so the core and
abdominal muscles have good activation, endurance and strength in all planes of movement
which leads to a decrease in unnecessary damaging stress on joints.
MOBILITY EXERCISES:
In these exercises, we are targeting the joint and doing movements and exercises that help
the joint function optimally. This allows a joint to move more freely.
FASCIA STRETCHING:
In this unique technique, we are targeting the tissue that muscles are surrounded in and
working on loosening and lengthening the fascia. Few people understand the negative e몭ect
this tissue can have on your body.
MUSCLE ACTIVATION MOVEMENTS:
Due to all of our sitting and daily technology use, many of our muscles are not working
properly. With this technique, we're targeting those muscles that are o몭 and activate them in
order to help the body move more e몭ciently.
Now you know the speci몭c techniques you need to unlock your hip 몭exors, the next question is
how to combine these in the most e몭ective way. Please don't be overwhelmed by the "Shop Talk"
above because…
LOOSENING YOUR HIP FLEXORS CAN ACTUALLY BE EASY WITH THE SEQUENTIAL
FLOW METHOD
Like unfolding a sheet or unpacking a parcel, opening up the muscles in your hips requires it to be
done in the right order.
Try to release one muscle before another and you'll add to your tightness. Getting it wrong really
can make it worse.
It's why so many people give up trying to 몭x the problem themselves and believe incorrectly that
they have to live with the problem. But hoping the problem will go away by not exercising is just as
damaging.
To explain in more detail about this 몭ow, let me introduce you to leading Kinesiologist and Injury
Specialist Rick Kaselj, MS.
Rick is "THE" guy 몭tness professionals go to when they want to learn about the latest techniques to
Rick is "THE" guy 몭tness professionals go to when they want to learn about the latest techniques to
help their own clients. He's given over 352 live presentations to more than 8,152 health
professionals in the US and Canada.
I 몭rst met Rick when he helped me 몭x a shoulder problem. He was one of the few injury specialists I
met who helped athletes by focusing on getting them back to training, rather than avoiding
workouts.
Rick showed me what so many other injury specialists hadn't - how to work through the right
sequence of techniques to unlock the tension and tightness in my muscles to properly solve the
problem.
He's the guy I turned to when my wife, Courtney, was struggling with pain and discomfort in her
hips after the birth of our son Lincoln.
In the days and months following the birth, she experienced pain in her legs and discomfort when
walking and sitting. She was struggling to sleep.
walking and sitting. She was struggling to sleep.
In just 15 minutes working with Rick, he'd successfully unlocked her hip 몭exors so she no longer felt
any pain or discomfort that day. She was able to walk without experiencing the nagging pain in her
pelvic area. She could sleep better and could start enjoying those precious days with a little one at
home.
But Rick's "몭ow" technique doesn’t only help those in pain.
At Critical Bench, our Head Strength Coach Chris Wilson felt his hip 몭exors were a little tight (from
sitting and answering training questions on facebook too much) and tried the same routine Rick
had used with my wife. Within days, Chris successfully increased his deadlift by 35 pounds to 몭nally
hit that 500 pound pull he had been training for. All because he got to experience the sequential
몭ow of movements that Rick developed to release his hip 몭exors.
It’s not about the exercises.
THE POWER OF RICK'S TECHNIQUE LIES NOT ONLY IN
WHAT TECHNIQUES ARE PERFORMED AND HOW
WELL, BUT IN DOING THESE IN THE PROPER
SEQUENCE.
DONE EFFECTIVELY, THE SEQUENTIAL FLOW WORKS
WITH YOUR BODY TO ACTIVATE ITS NATURAL
HEALING PROCESS, IMPROVE FLEXIBILITY WHILE
ADDING STRENGTH AND VITALITY.
While many of the techniques were ones I already knew, doing the movements in the right order
unravels all the tissues including muscle, fascia, connective tissue, and the joint capsule while
breaking up scar tissue.
Using the right sequence kick starts an increase in blood 몭ow to the area to clean out
metabolites and lactic acid and reduces in몭ammation while nourishing and rejuvenating the
area.
I've seen, with my own eyes, the power of Rick's techniques on my wife and our Head Strength
Coach Chris Wilson.
That's why I asked Rick to share with you the very same program so you too can help to unlock
your hip 몭exors and gain all the bene몭ts.

ORDER TODAY AND YOU'LL RECEIVE THESE TWO POWERFUL BONUSES
BONUS 1 Unlock Your Tight Hamstrings "The Key
To A Healthy Back And Perfect Posture"
First and foremost, if the muscles of the hamstrings are tight, they are more
susceptible to tearing. No matter if you're an elite athlete, stay-at-home-mom
or average Joe, a muscle tear in the back of your legs can take months to heal
and recover from making life very challenging.
In today's world, most people make a living from a seated position along with
sitting in their car and while at home. All of that sitting over time increases
In today's world, most people make a living from a seated position along with
sitting in their car and while at home. All of that sitting over time increases
tightness in the hamstrings. Having tight hamstrings causes the hips and pelvis
to rotate back which 몭attens the lower back causing lower back pain and poor
posture.
In a more perfect world, everyone would get regular sports massage to help
improve the muscle tissue quality of the hamstrings by increasing blood 몭ow
but unfortunately for most of us, that isn't always possible.
However, there is something all people can do by themselves which takes only
minutes per day to help improve muscle condition and loosen up those tight
hamstrings instantly. In a matter of minutes, you can begin to reverse the
damage to the hamstrings and greatly impact how you feel.
This super e몭ective routine will not only reduce the likelihood of injury but will
also improve performance, correct posture and alleviate pain in the lower back.
BONUS 2 The 7-Day Anti-In몭ammatory Diet
"Automatically Heal Your Body with The Right Foods"
The Unlock Your Hip Flexors program is designed to bring you all the bene몭ts
of looser hip 몭exors with greater strength, power and 몭exibility.
But its bene몭ts are multiplied when combined with a holistic diet to naturally
alleviate pains, aches, soreness and sti몭ness by tackling in몭ammation caused
by injury or environmental toxins in our food and water.
Your diet is one of the major causes of in몭ammatory responses leading to
health deteriorating.
You can instantly improve your body's response to in몭ammation by choosing
the right foods that work with your body to stimulate your natural healing
response.
The 7-Day Anti-In몭ammatory Diet is a Done-For-You nutrition program
featuring diet recommendations, meal plans, shopping lists and supplement
tips to help your body automatically heal itself.
In as little as 24 hours, your body will switch on its natural healing process
rather than causing pain and in몭ammation which can lead to many chronic
diseases and health problems.
INSIDE THE UNLOCK YOUR HIP FLEXORS PROGRAM, YOU'LL DISCOVER:
Exactly how to target those hard-to-reach muscles with detailed, step-
by-step walk-through videos of every single Key Move (Rick's simple,
clear demonstration of these powerful moves will help them become
second nature in no time).
The No.1 single most important element of human body posture
and why your hips hold the key to peak performance (if this fails,
your performance is drastically a몭ected whether running, walking
or even just standing).
The true impact of your body's “Mighty Muscle” and how it is really
a몭ecting your physical, emotional and spiritual well being (you'll be
shocked how big an impact this has on your everyday life).
How your body's natural survival response has been tricked into
permanent "danger" mode, and how you can switch it o몭 to see faster
fat loss and more energy (the reasoning behind this is crazy, but
completely true).
The main causes for your psoas muscle to change structure, a major
danger sign for your body (any change, however minimal, has an
overwhelming impact that ripples across your body causing other
muscle groups to compensate).
Why you're just as likely to be a몭ected by this problem if you're a balls-
to-the-wall gym rat training 24/7 or a couch potato.
Why, if you have a desk job or drive a car for long periods, you need to
act NOW.
The shocking reason your intense core workouts could be doing
more harm than good if you haven't loosened your hips 몭rst (and
why crunches and sit-ups won’t do a thing to help).
Why strong legs and glutes are important to your overall heath and
why you need to prevent too much 몭exion of your hips.
How trauma, injury and stress can build up within your posture and
how it will ultimately a몭ect your psychological state.
Why the "cure" isn't simply to stop sitting (you need to be more pro-
active in targeting the muscles a몭ected to undo the damage from
sitting all day).
Why the damage is most likely ALREADY done and exactly what you
need to do to redress those deep-seeded imbalances before the
damage becomes permanent (if this doesn't kick you into action,
nothing will…)
Why "comfort" and "support" are the enemies of our natural
physiology and how we can start to move back towards our natural
posture (forget pillows, support cushions and belts.)
How tight hips a몭ect your sexual performance through decreased
blood 몭ow and circulation and what you can do about it right now to
achieve peak sexual health again.
Why some guys end up with "old-guy butt syndrome" that isn't sexy
but also inevitably leads to hip pain and how to avoid it by loosening
the hips.
The 2 situations you NEED to be aware of when training your glutes
to ensure they're properly activated for maximum athletic
performance.
How to clear your mind and re-energize your thinking simply through
learning how to relax your psoas muscle (this alone will help you wipe
stress from your mind in an instant).
Plus much more…
WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT UNLOCK YOUR HIP FLEXORS
Stronger & Faster Than Ever
"Being an athlete all my life and having endured multiple knee surgeries
due to blowing out ACL's in both knees, I later started to develop a hip
issue in my right hip due to the years of wear and tear. It actually got so
bad it was hard for me to perform as an athlete as well as be a
productive coach for my clients.
After getting an MRI to have it checked out, I realized I had a degenerative
arthritic condition in the hip that is not reversible. Surgery was not an
option I wanted to go through so I contacted Rick Kaselj to see if he had
something for me. When I started to apply the strategies from Unlock
Your Hip Flexors it helped me re-balance my pelvis and hip joint to where
I couldn't even tell I had an issue anymore.
These days I'm stronger and faster than ever and still competing in
sports. Rick gave me the ability to perform at my highest level as a coach
and regain the athletic ability I had lost over the years from wear and
and regain the athletic ability I had lost over the years from wear and
tear. I've been using Rick's strategies for years to help myself manage and
recover from injuries as well as countless members of the 몭tness
community. I couldn't recommend this product enough!"

You Need Flexible Hips to Live a Long
Healthy Life
"I have known Rick Kaselj since college. Since then I have gone to
Chiropractic college and become a Diplomate of the International College
of Applied Kinesiology and a Diplomate in Clinical Nutrition. As a result I
have come to some important conclusions about how the body works.
Hip 몭exibility, mobility and strength is one of the most important things
you can do to keep your overall body healthy. The way we moved
thousands of years ago is our natural state, which requires 몭exible and
mobile hips.
I was excited to here about Rick Kaselj’s Unlock Your Hip Flexors program
and have read the manual and watched the videos. I was very impressed
with the content. I implemented the concepts and program into my
practice with my clients.
Rick has developed a comprehensive system to unlock your hips and
restore movement the way it should be. Everyone could bene몭t from
Unlock Your Hip Flexors. The two most important things to live a long
healthy live is good quality whole food and great movement and which
requires great hip mobility. I cannot recommend this program enough."

Helped Me Deadlift 500 Pounds
"What if I told you that you could increase your deadlift by 35 pounds in

Kaselj worked with me personally to help me loosen my hip 몭exors and
the explosiveness that was unlocked help me 몭nally hit that 500 lb pull
I've been training for.
If you do any kind of explosive lifting Unlock Your Hip Flexors can
de몭nitely help you add pounds to your max!"

back to it later". But what happens in a few days time? In a week's time? In six months' time?
Will you still be feeling the damaging e몭ects of tight hip 몭exors when you hit the gym, sit at your
desk all day or try sleeping soundly at night?
A few weeks from now, that nagging pain starts to irritate you again or you'll look in the mirror and
wonder why you're still unable to shift that last bit of body fat from your tummy.
Three months later, as you take a couple of painkillers to numb your back pain, you’ll suddenly
remember reading this letter and wonder… how would I be feeling right now had I taken action

Physical Therapist Approved!
"With so many people su몭ering with Hip Pain out there, Ricks’ program
"Unlock Your Hip Flexors" is a great tool for any 몭tness or health
professional that wants to reduce pain, and improve strength,
performance and overall health.
As a Physical Therapist that works with numerous hip injuries, I can
incorporate many of Rick’s exercises into my rehabilitative and wellness
programs for my patients with excellent results.
The exercises are sensible and easy to learn – and your clients will be
happy, healthy and thank you for it!"
Erin Nielsen Physical Therapist Creator, TonedInTenFitness.com
A Great Resource for Coaches & Trainers
"Having trained hundreds of clients over the past 15 years, I know the
importance of having fresh, valuable knowledge that I can rely on
especially on areas of the body like the hips. Unlock Your Hip Flexors was
exactly what I needed to read. In typical Critical Bench fashion, the
content blew me away.
With this program that Rick and Mike created, I am able to con몭dently
walk into a training session better equipped to take my client to the next
level of training. Critical Bench is my go-to source for simple yet
professional information. I can't recommend them enough."
Brian Klepacki, MS, CSCS Owner of Optimax Performance Training

Safely Re-Balance the Muscle Group
"I think the Unlock Your Hip Flexors program is very complete in listing
the possible causes of tight hip 몭exors and other factors that can lead to
the issue.
It is detailed, descriptive, from the anatomy of the hip, causes of such
injuries, and a very progressive and well explained exercise and
stretching schedule that will assist to re-balance the hip and pelvic
region, safely stretch and strengthen the muscle group."
Jill B. Massage Therapist from Alberta, Canada
Don't Have a Personal Trainer? No Problem!
"I’m not a 몭tness professional, just a 62 year old guy who came across
your website looking for help with several physical issues I have been
experiencing.
As a former college basketball player I found it discouraging that no one
could seem to help me with my lower back problems and more recently
my Glutes and Hip 몭exors. That was until I found your site and ordered
your exercise program which has dramatically improved each one of my
my Glutes and Hip 몭exors. That was until I found your site and ordered
your exercise program which has dramatically improved each one of my
conditions!
The Unlock Your Hip Flexors program is easy to order and easy to
download, no waiting for a delivery. The video presentation and visuals in
the exercise program give me con몭dence that I am doing the exercises
correctly which for me is key with no personal trainer. As a former Div 1
college athlete the programs work really well for me! Keep up the good
work!"
Mark Jellison Account Executive of Procter & Gamble Boston, MA
Allows Me To Workout Hard Without Pain
"I came across Rick Kaselj a few years back when I was looking for
something to help with my painful piriformis syndrome pain which I had
been su몭ering with for over a year. I watch one of his YouTube videos
and the advice he gave in the video helped get rid of my piriformis and
hip pain. Ever since then I have been following Rick on a daily basis with
YouTube videos, blog posts and articles.
When I heard Rick was working on a new program to help unlock your
hips, I asked him if I could buy a copy in advance. I have been going
through the videos and manual in the Unlock Your Hip Flexors program
over the last few weeks. The short yet e몭cient sequence that Rick put
together has helped loosen up my hips, decrease back tightness and
allowed me to workout even harder. After getting such great bene몭t from
the program, I have also started giving it to my clients and they have
reported similar bene몭ts.
Thanks for everything you do Rick and I know if you have a sti몭, tight or
painful hip then Unlock Your Hip Flexors will help you."
Kerri Baker, CPT, BS, BA, MS Exercise Science Personal Training
Studio Manager Kirkland,Washington KerriBFitness.com
If You Sit A Lot You Need Unlock Your Hip
Flexors
"As a gym owner and personal trainer, I'm always in search of the latest
techniques and exercises to help my members and clients with strength
and overall body function. Knowing how much people sit and
unknowingly abuse their hips in every day life makes Unlock Your Hip
Flexors so worthwhile.
The other added bonus is how simply and quickly these techniques can
be applied at the start of any workout making all movements of the body
better in just minutes. The response has been life changing not only for
my clients but for myself."
Ivan Gomez, Certi몭ed Personal Trainer Health Club Owner -
Clearwater, FL
Get The Edge Over the Competition
"If you are an athlete that relies on explosiveness in your sport than you
must be aware of the #1 road block in your performance... tight hip
몭exors.
It's the hidden killer of success. Athletes that sit all day for their day job
are causing terrible alignment in their hips... which wreaks havoc on
other areas of their body. Improving the mobility in your hips will give
you the extra edge over the competition and improve the e몭ectiveness of
your workouts.
Mike and Rick's Unlock Your Hip Flexors program is the most complete,
systematic approach that I've ever seen on the market. The program will
help take your athleticism to the next level no matter if you are a top
professional or just starting out."
"Bodyweight Todd" Kuslikis Founder of Shot of Adrenaline
Unlock Your Hips to Unlock Your Squat"
"I’ve had so many personal training clients come and see me over the
years that can’t squat properly, it drives me mad! This is mostly due to
their hip mobility or lack of it! If you sit all day, have hips that are sti몭,
su몭er from mysterious hip aches or struggle to do a perfect squat, then
you need to check out Rick Kaselj and his Unlock Your Hip Flexors
program.
In my experience tight hips, ache hips and poor squatting if not
addressed will lead to more serious injuries and pain further down the
addressed will lead to more serious injuries and pain further down the
line, which is why I whole heartedly recommend Rick’s Unlock Your Hip
Flexors program. Get it!"
Gavin Walsh BSc (Hons) Personal Trainer ,Brighton, East Sussex, UK
FAQS ABOUT UNLOCK YOUR HIP FLEXORS
Q: How is this di몭erent from other hip 몭exibility programs?
A: What makes Rick's program unique is knowing how to unravel the tricky layers of tension with
the very di몭cult psoas muscle in order to e몭ectively loosen and train it.
Rick's one-of-a-kind sequential 몭ow is your surest path to looser, stronger and healthier hips.
Q: Why are you selling this so cheap? What's the catch?
A: There is none. We're so pleased with the number of our customers who have made the
investment in this program and have enjoyed life-changing results.
Our aim is to make this available to as many guys as possible, 몭rstly to welcome more people to
our CriticalBench.com audience and secondly because we're celebrating hitting a quarter million
fans on Facebook.
Q: How long will it take me to do the program?
A: The program is designed to take between 10-15 minutes in total to complete.
We recommended adding the program as a daily practice to get the best results over a longer
period of time. You may wish to add this program before or after your regular gym session or use it
We recommended adding the program as a daily practice to get the best results over a longer
period of time. You may wish to add this program before or after your regular gym session or use it
independently.
Q: How long until I see results?
A: Although everyone is di몭erent and results may vary, we know from experience how quickly it's
possible to feel and see a di몭erence.
For some it may be as soon as their 몭rst session; for others it may take a few sessions to really start
seeing the bene몭ts. Again, it depends on the body in question.
Q: Who is this program suitable for?
A: This program is suitable for you if you're currently su몭ering from inexplicable back, hip or joint
pain.
The exercises themselves are not strenuous and are designed to be carried out by anyone,
regardless of ability.
Q: Can I perform the Sequential Flow if I have had a hip replacement?
A: The answer to this is very individual. It depends on what type of hip replacement surgery you
had and how you have recovered from it the surgery. It is best to ask your surgeon or doctor to see
which exercises of the sequential 몭ow you should do or avoid.
Q: I want to start right away. Do I have to wait for the book and videos to come in the mail?
A: You don’t have to wait, you can have access in just a few moments. Unlock Your Hip Flexors is a
digital product so don’t worry about shipping fees or delaying results.
Q: Are the exercises hard to perform?
A: Nope. Once you watch the coaching videos they will be easy for you. There are also progressions
to make the movements more challenging if needed.
Q: What if the routine doesn’t work for me?
A: It will work. But to make you feel better, if for any reason you're not happy you’ll get a full refund,
no questions asked. We stand behind this product 110% and have no problem o몭ering a money
back guarantee.
Q: Do I need a gym membership or any special equipment?
A: No. You can do this routine anywhere in a very small space. All you need is a wall to lean on for
support for a couple of the movements.

  • 1. The "Hidden Survival Muscle" In Your Body Missed By Modern Physicians That Keep Millions Of Men And Women Defeated By Pain, Frustrated With Belly Fat, And Struggling To Feel Energized Every Day… Thursday March 09, 2023 Dear Friend, You train hard, you eat well…it should be enough to keep you in good health and physically and emotionally strong. Yet, there is a danger lurking in our bodies that's not only hidden from us… but which even doctors Follow 878K
  • 2. Yet, there is a danger lurking in our bodies that's not only hidden from us… but which even doctors are failing to identify. It a몭ects nearly everybody, no matter how active or sedentary you are, or how old or young you are. This problem a몭ects not only our body but our whole well-being. And when I tell you what it is, you'll be shocked… … because it's tight hip 몭exors. You see, our hip 몭exors are the engine through which our body moves. They control balance, our ability to sit, stand, twist, reach, bend, walk and step. Everything goes through the hips. And when our hip 몭exors tighten it causes a lot of problems in ordinarily healthy and active people, like us. Before I reveal how most people end up having tight hip 몭exors yet never realize it, let me introduce myself.
  • 3. My name is Mike Westerdal and I'm a national best-selling 몭tness author, sports nutrition specialist, personal trainer, Iron Man magazine contributor and founder of the internet's longest-standing strength site, CriticalBench.com. In a moment, I'll reveal to you the 10 Key Moves you need to loosen your hip 몭exors and unlock the hidden power in your body. But 몭rst, let me explain just how deep-rooted the problem is. THE SHOCKING WAYS THAT TIGHT HIPS ARE HOLDING YOU BACK… THAT YOU WON’T BELIEVE Here's the truth: Most people don’t realize the cause of their problems is tight hip 몭exors. The impact the hips had on the whole body never occurred to me until I saw the e몭ect of tight hip 몭exors had on the health and well-being of my wife after she gave birth. It was only then that I truly understood the magnitude of the problem. We're not just talking about a bit of soreness; tight hip 몭exors are the root cause of problems such as: Nagging joint pains in your legs, lower back or hips Walking with discomfort Hips locking up Bad posture Trouble sleeping Sluggishness in day to day life High Anxiety Digestive problems Compromised Immune System Circulatory issues Loss of sexual performance Lack of Explosiveness in the gym or sports If any of these sound familiar to you, don't worry because you're not alone. Tight hip 몭exors a몭ect nearly everybody, but few realize the impact on your whole body. Again, everything 몭ows through the hips. Think of the hips as a barometer. The health and 몭exibility of your hip muscles
  • 4. Think of the hips as a barometer. The health and 몭exibility of your hip muscles are an indicator of the strength and health of our whole body. AND AT THE VERY HEART OF THIS IS THE "HIDDEN" MOST POWERFUL SURVIVAL MUSCLE. WHEN THIS MUSCLE IS HEALTHY, WE ARE HEALTHY. INTRODUCING THE BODY'S MOST POWERFUL, PRIMAL MUSCLE… … THAT YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF Your hips are the bridge between your upper body and lower body. They are at the center of your body's movement.
  • 5. Your hips are the bridge between your upper body and lower body. They are at the center of your body's movement. Sitting within the well of your hip and lower spine is the psoas major muscle, one of the two muscles that makes up the iliopsoas. It’s often called the "mighty" psoas (pronounced so-az) for the many important functions it plays in the movement of your body. The psoas is the only muscle in the human body connecting the upper body to the lower body. The muscle attaches to the vertebrae of the lower spine, moves through the pelvis and connects to a tendon at the top of the femur. It also attaches to the diaphragm, so it’s connected to your breathing, and upon it sits all the major organs. A functioning psoas muscle creates a neutral pelvic alignment, stabilizes the hips, supports the lower spine and abdomen, supports the organs in the pelvic and abdominal cavity and gives you greater mobility and core strength. When it functions well, it has the power to… … help you achieve peak performance day after day after day. … rapidly drop ugly body fat that stubbornly clings to your body. … train harder, heavier and gain strength faster than you thought possible. … hit your peak of sexual health. … 몭ood your mind and body with renewed energy and vigor. Put simply, this muscle is the core of activity in your body. So, when it's out of balance or if the psoas tightens, there are serious consequences which 몭ow throughout the body. And there's one activity, in particular, that's the sworn enemy of your psoas muscle… THE NO.1 ACTIVITY THAT'S MAKING YOU WEAKER, FATTER AND IS KILLING YOUR SEX LIFE
  • 6. It may be the most harmless activity known to man, but it's also one of the biggest dangers to your health. Even if you're the most active of athletes, you may still su몭er from a tight psoas due to the amount of time you spend each day planted to a chair. Weakness, shortening and tightness develops in the muscle through sitting for extended periods of time, poor sleep posture and even stress and tension. HERE ARE 3 WAYS THAT SITTING IS KILLING YOUR PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL HEALTH: BULGING BELLY SYNDROME Wonder why your stomach still sticks out even though you’re hammering the core exercises every day? It's a common myth that bulging belly is due to weak abdominal muscles. The real cause is likely to be tight psoas muscles, which cause the lower back to curve pushing out the stomach. When the psoas works properly it pulls the abdomen back tucking the tummy in, giving you a strong, 몭at stomach.
  • 7. FAT LOSS INHIBITOR As the body's "몭ght or 몭ight" muscle, your psoas is deeply connected to our natural survival instinct. It instantly tightens in moments of danger to either protect you (in a fetal position) or help you run, fueled by the release of adrenaline. However, if your psoas is constantly tight, it signals to the body you are in constant danger, leading to overworking of the adrenal glands. When this happens, your immune system su몭ers and your body automatically switches into fat storing mode in anticipation of danger. Can’t shift that weight? Blame your hips also known as your "survival muscle". LACK OF SEXUAL PERFORMANCE Sitting all day causes your hips to become stuck in a forward thrust position. This leads to pulling on the lower back and decreased blood 몭ow and circulation through the hips and to where it matters. SITTING IS YOUR ENEMY IN THE QUEST TO DISCOVER PEAK HEALTH, BECAUSE OF THE WIDE-RANGING IMPACT IT CAUSES TO YOUR MOST VITAL MUSCLE.
  • 8. SITTING IS YOUR ENEMY IN THE QUEST TO DISCOVER PEAK HEALTH, BECAUSE OF THE WIDE-RANGING IMPACT IT CAUSES TO YOUR MOST VITAL MUSCLE. WHAT YOUR PHYSICIAN ISN'T TELLING YOU… AND WHAT THEY DON’T KNOW Diagnosing tight hip 몭exors is tricky. If you've seen a therapist or physician, chances are they weren't able to pinpoint the issue. Buried so deep within your abdomen, it's no wonder identifying it as the root cause of any of your symptoms is di몭cult to do. It's why tight hip 몭exors are left undiagnosed and untreated for far too long, as physicians look for a simpler explanation. So understand that this it's not your fault. However, knowing this hands you the power to 몭nally do something about it before it's too late. WHY "STATIC" STRETCHING ALONE ISN'T THE ANSWER
  • 9. Knowing you have tight hip 몭exors is one thing. Knowing how to 몭x your hip 몭exors is another challenge altogether. If you trust so-called experts on Youtube and online, they'll have you believe it's simply a case of holding a few static stretches for a period of time to try and lengthen the muscle. Or rolling around with a tennis ball stuck to your hip (as if that will really make any di몭erence). It takes more than a tennis ball and foam roller to unlock your hip 몭exors…and doing it wrong could cause even MORE damage. The reason few people manage to 몭x their hip 몭exors is simple. It's really a hard area to reach. If you see how the psoas is attached within your body, it's buried deep inside your core making it tough to access. It's a hard muscle to 몭nd, let alone train. Static Stretching Has Its Place - But The Stretch You See Above Is the Best Stretch To Do In The Morning So it's little wonder why trying to loosen it requires more than a simple static hip 몭exor stretch like the one below you've probably tried before.
  • 10. You've probably found you're spending (or wasting) hours of your time stretching this way only to 몭nd it's having minimal e몭ect. That's because you need to attack the muscle from a variety of angles using a variety of exercise techniques and modalities in order to "unpack" the muscle in the right way. The truth is, you can learn to release your tight hip 몭exors on your own. If you think of your psoas as a combination safe lock, there are several numbers that will unlock it but they need to be entered in the right order. There are a number of speci몭c movements beyond simple static stretching you can use to unlock and loosen your hips, legs and back. PNF STRETCHING: PNF is an acronym for proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation. It is a technique where you are activating a speci몭c muscle in order to relax the muscles around a joint so you can decrease the sti몭ness around a joint. DYNAMIC STRETCHING:
  • 11. DYNAMIC STRETCHING: This is where you are activating the muscle around a joint and moving that joint through its full range of motion in a progressive manner. This leads to an increased range of motion around the joint, warming up of the muscle around the joint and improved circulation around the joint. Think of high knees or butt kicks. 3-DIMENSIONAL CORE STABILITY EXERCISES: With these exercises we are targeting the muscle in all planes of movement so the core and abdominal muscles have good activation, endurance and strength in all planes of movement which leads to a decrease in unnecessary damaging stress on joints. MOBILITY EXERCISES: In these exercises, we are targeting the joint and doing movements and exercises that help the joint function optimally. This allows a joint to move more freely.
  • 12. FASCIA STRETCHING: In this unique technique, we are targeting the tissue that muscles are surrounded in and working on loosening and lengthening the fascia. Few people understand the negative e몭ect this tissue can have on your body. MUSCLE ACTIVATION MOVEMENTS: Due to all of our sitting and daily technology use, many of our muscles are not working properly. With this technique, we're targeting those muscles that are o몭 and activate them in order to help the body move more e몭ciently. Now you know the speci몭c techniques you need to unlock your hip 몭exors, the next question is how to combine these in the most e몭ective way. Please don't be overwhelmed by the "Shop Talk" above because… LOOSENING YOUR HIP FLEXORS CAN ACTUALLY BE EASY WITH THE SEQUENTIAL FLOW METHOD Like unfolding a sheet or unpacking a parcel, opening up the muscles in your hips requires it to be done in the right order. Try to release one muscle before another and you'll add to your tightness. Getting it wrong really can make it worse. It's why so many people give up trying to 몭x the problem themselves and believe incorrectly that they have to live with the problem. But hoping the problem will go away by not exercising is just as damaging. To explain in more detail about this 몭ow, let me introduce you to leading Kinesiologist and Injury Specialist Rick Kaselj, MS. Rick is "THE" guy 몭tness professionals go to when they want to learn about the latest techniques to
  • 13. Rick is "THE" guy 몭tness professionals go to when they want to learn about the latest techniques to help their own clients. He's given over 352 live presentations to more than 8,152 health professionals in the US and Canada. I 몭rst met Rick when he helped me 몭x a shoulder problem. He was one of the few injury specialists I met who helped athletes by focusing on getting them back to training, rather than avoiding workouts. Rick showed me what so many other injury specialists hadn't - how to work through the right sequence of techniques to unlock the tension and tightness in my muscles to properly solve the problem. He's the guy I turned to when my wife, Courtney, was struggling with pain and discomfort in her hips after the birth of our son Lincoln. In the days and months following the birth, she experienced pain in her legs and discomfort when walking and sitting. She was struggling to sleep.
  • 14. walking and sitting. She was struggling to sleep. In just 15 minutes working with Rick, he'd successfully unlocked her hip 몭exors so she no longer felt any pain or discomfort that day. She was able to walk without experiencing the nagging pain in her pelvic area. She could sleep better and could start enjoying those precious days with a little one at home. But Rick's "몭ow" technique doesn’t only help those in pain. At Critical Bench, our Head Strength Coach Chris Wilson felt his hip 몭exors were a little tight (from sitting and answering training questions on facebook too much) and tried the same routine Rick had used with my wife. Within days, Chris successfully increased his deadlift by 35 pounds to 몭nally hit that 500 pound pull he had been training for. All because he got to experience the sequential 몭ow of movements that Rick developed to release his hip 몭exors. It’s not about the exercises. THE POWER OF RICK'S TECHNIQUE LIES NOT ONLY IN WHAT TECHNIQUES ARE PERFORMED AND HOW WELL, BUT IN DOING THESE IN THE PROPER SEQUENCE. DONE EFFECTIVELY, THE SEQUENTIAL FLOW WORKS WITH YOUR BODY TO ACTIVATE ITS NATURAL HEALING PROCESS, IMPROVE FLEXIBILITY WHILE ADDING STRENGTH AND VITALITY. While many of the techniques were ones I already knew, doing the movements in the right order unravels all the tissues including muscle, fascia, connective tissue, and the joint capsule while breaking up scar tissue. Using the right sequence kick starts an increase in blood 몭ow to the area to clean out metabolites and lactic acid and reduces in몭ammation while nourishing and rejuvenating the area. I've seen, with my own eyes, the power of Rick's techniques on my wife and our Head Strength Coach Chris Wilson. That's why I asked Rick to share with you the very same program so you too can help to unlock your hip 몭exors and gain all the bene몭ts.

No matter if you're an elite athlete, stay-at-home-mom or average Joe, a muscle tear in the back of your legs can take months to heal and recover from making life very challenging. In today's world, most people make a living from a seated position along with sitting in their car and while at home. All of that sitting over time increases
  • 18. In today's world, most people make a living from a seated position along with sitting in their car and while at home. All of that sitting over time increases tightness in the hamstrings. Having tight hamstrings causes the hips and pelvis to rotate back which 몭attens the lower back causing lower back pain and poor posture. In a more perfect world, everyone would get regular sports massage to help improve the muscle tissue quality of the hamstrings by increasing blood 몭ow but unfortunately for most of us, that isn't always possible. However, there is something all people can do by themselves which takes only minutes per day to help improve muscle condition and loosen up those tight hamstrings instantly. In a matter of minutes, you can begin to reverse the damage to the hamstrings and greatly impact how you feel. This super e몭ective routine will not only reduce the likelihood of injury but will also improve performance, correct posture and alleviate pain in the lower back. BONUS 2 The 7-Day Anti-In몭ammatory Diet "Automatically Heal Your Body with The Right Foods"
  • 19. The Unlock Your Hip Flexors program is designed to bring you all the bene몭ts of looser hip 몭exors with greater strength, power and 몭exibility. But its bene몭ts are multiplied when combined with a holistic diet to naturally alleviate pains, aches, soreness and sti몭ness by tackling in몭ammation caused by injury or environmental toxins in our food and water. Your diet is one of the major causes of in몭ammatory responses leading to health deteriorating. You can instantly improve your body's response to in몭ammation by choosing the right foods that work with your body to stimulate your natural healing response. The 7-Day Anti-In몭ammatory Diet is a Done-For-You nutrition program featuring diet recommendations, meal plans, shopping lists and supplement tips to help your body automatically heal itself. In as little as 24 hours, your body will switch on its natural healing process rather than causing pain and in몭ammation which can lead to many chronic diseases and health problems. INSIDE THE UNLOCK YOUR HIP FLEXORS PROGRAM, YOU'LL DISCOVER: Exactly how to target those hard-to-reach muscles with detailed, step- by-step walk-through videos of every single Key Move (Rick's simple, clear demonstration of these powerful moves will help them become second nature in no time). The No.1 single most important element of human body posture and why your hips hold the key to peak performance (if this fails, your performance is drastically a몭ected whether running, walking or even just standing).
  • 20. The true impact of your body's “Mighty Muscle” and how it is really a몭ecting your physical, emotional and spiritual well being (you'll be shocked how big an impact this has on your everyday life). How your body's natural survival response has been tricked into permanent "danger" mode, and how you can switch it o몭 to see faster fat loss and more energy (the reasoning behind this is crazy, but completely true). The main causes for your psoas muscle to change structure, a major danger sign for your body (any change, however minimal, has an overwhelming impact that ripples across your body causing other muscle groups to compensate). Why you're just as likely to be a몭ected by this problem if you're a balls- to-the-wall gym rat training 24/7 or a couch potato. Why, if you have a desk job or drive a car for long periods, you need to act NOW.
  • 21. The shocking reason your intense core workouts could be doing more harm than good if you haven't loosened your hips 몭rst (and why crunches and sit-ups won’t do a thing to help). Why strong legs and glutes are important to your overall heath and why you need to prevent too much 몭exion of your hips. How trauma, injury and stress can build up within your posture and how it will ultimately a몭ect your psychological state. Why the "cure" isn't simply to stop sitting (you need to be more pro- active in targeting the muscles a몭ected to undo the damage from sitting all day). Why the damage is most likely ALREADY done and exactly what you need to do to redress those deep-seeded imbalances before the damage becomes permanent (if this doesn't kick you into action, nothing will…) Why "comfort" and "support" are the enemies of our natural physiology and how we can start to move back towards our natural posture (forget pillows, support cushions and belts.) How tight hips a몭ect your sexual performance through decreased blood 몭ow and circulation and what you can do about it right now to achieve peak sexual health again. Why some guys end up with "old-guy butt syndrome" that isn't sexy but also inevitably leads to hip pain and how to avoid it by loosening the hips. The 2 situations you NEED to be aware of when training your glutes to ensure they're properly activated for maximum athletic performance.
