Hip Flexor pain during weighted hikes?
I've noticed over the last few years that I get hip flexor pain when hiking with weight. This past weekend I did a 15 mile 5,000' gain overnighter while shed hunting. My AMR came in around 45lbs after food and water which feels like nothing on the 26" hunting frame. I've had hip flexor pain no matter which pack I wear though. From an Alps Mountaineering 5200, Kuiu Icon Pro 5200, and the AMR. Do any of you experience hip flexor pain, and what stretches and conditioning do you do to combat the issue. My new AMR is absolutely incredible. I feel like if it wasn't for sore hip flexors, I'd be unstoppable.
Thanks!
