Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Should my glutes pop when I stretch?

When I stretch my glutes I always feel the muscles 'popping' on my left side. Is this a good or bad thing?

This never used to happen until recently. At the end of last year I suffered with a nasty IT band problem and was given a streching routine. I originally thought the popping was good because it was releasing muscles that had contributed to my IT Band problem but am now a little concerned that its still happening.

Any advice? (Other than see a physio)

Does it feel bad? If it's not causing you any pain, then I say it's probably not a problem.

Not really, I do sometimes get achy glutes but nothing too bad.

Got something to say?
