Progression of 90/90 Hip Rotation

PROGRESSION · HOW TO DO IT

90/90 knee lift-off

These steps are written specifically for the 90/90 knee lift-off. Follow them in order and stop before you lose the position.

  1. 01
    Set up your version

    Set up specifically for the 90/90 knee lift-off. Sit with both knees bent and feet wider than the hips. Place the hands behind you if needed.

  2. 02
    Move the pattern

    Rotate both knees together toward one side until the legs settle into two 90-degree shapes.

  3. 03
    Match the demand

    Treat this version as the only progression; do not add load, range, and tempo at the same time.

  4. 04
    Finish with control

    Stay tall, then move through the hips to sweep the knees to the other side without forcing the range. Keep both sit bones heavy as long as possible.

WHY IT EARNS A SPOT

Own the position,
then earn the load.

The 90/90 position exposes both directions of hip rotation and makes active control easy to scale with hand support or lift-offs.
