S&S has been making me feel like a million bucks, but I have noticed that my IT bands have been reluctant to join me on this journey.
A few hours after a session and in the night I get a huge tightness that pops up anywhere from my mid thigh all the way down to my arches. It isn't painful but it isn't normal either. After chasing it around with a lacross ball and roller and looking up symptoms, I'm sure it is my IT band.
I found the reverse cossack in RIS, but my attempts have not yielded any tension or relief in my legs, I mostly feel something in my sides/shoulder pressure. Can anyone offer any cues to help get the positioning right?
I'd also love to hear any other movements that might help, either the IT band directly or the contributing muscles. I'd like to add something to my S&S stretches to address this opportunity for improvement.
Thanks in advance!
