Thread: IT band issues

Just off the top of my head from experience working with clients I would expect there are other issues.

It's tight right where my it band is going down to my knee. I've also been experiencing knee pains a bit on that knee. I had my trainer roll it out with an 80lb pain pill and it seems to have helped a bit (while almost bringing me to tears)He said that it seemed very tight and I had a lot of scar tissue and gave me some stretches that he said will help.

My turn, 1st, do your toes point outward dramatically if you don't pay attention to how your standing? And would you say you have difficulty engaging your glutes/hamstrings?
