  Want to learn more from SHIFT? Check out our courses here!https://courses.shiftmovementscience.com/Six weeks off resets our pace and sharpens our focus as we map the two big hip profiles: lax undercoverage vs. stiff overcoverage. We compare symptoms, tests, workloads, and when to choose conservative care, injections, or surgery.• undercoverage laxity causing end-range subluxation and labral overload• overcoverage FAI producing flexion–IR compression and anterior pinching• subjective patterns that separate kicks and splits from deep squat pain• movement tests for each profile aligned to the mechanism• imaging cues: alpha angle, lateral center-edge angle, dysplasia markers• diagnostic injection as a decision hinge before surgery• active flexibility over passive oversplits and ankle weights• workload changes that actually calm irritable hips• posterior-chain and rotator strength to build control through range• growth and early specialisation shaping expectations and skill choices• matching athlete profiles to skills and roles to reduce relapse riskWe appreciate you listening!
