IT Band to Stretch or Strengthen?

I constantly see people sharing stretches for the IT Band for IT Band related pain!

When you look more into the IT band and how thick of a tissue structure it is, stretches aren't going to do anything to move the needle on long term change.

You actually need to strengthen to help promote remodeling of this structure!

In our recent podcast, we talk all about IT Band related hip pain and how we can start to address this.
