Fixing tight hips for the desk jockey.

Sitting for hours at your desk can do a number on your hip flexibility.  Over time, this can cause a decrease in the range of motion in your hips which can lead to back pain, decreased performance in sports/exercise and an overall decrease in hip motion.  This simple move can be done at home, work or the gym.
