Exercises for Hip Impingement Quiz

This short quiz is a simple way to see how well the pieces are coming together. You will revisit pelvic positioning, glutes, adductors, core, and the psoas and how they influence real-world hip function.

Think of it as a quick confidence check. If you have been connecting the dots while reading, you will do great.

Pass the quiz and we will send you $20 off Pelvis Pro 2.0 when enrollment opens on February 24th.

Take your time, trust your instincts, and enjoy it.

Start

Question 1 of 10

What is hip impingement?

A

Inflammation of the hip flexor tendons

B

When the ball and socket of the hip joint bump into each other

C

A tear of the gluteus medius

D

Compression of the sciatic nerve

Question 2 of 10

The FADIR test stands for:

A

Flexion, Abduction, Internal Rotation

B

Flexion, Adduction, External Rotation

C

Extension, Adduction, Internal Rotation

D

Flexion, Adduction, Internal Rotation

Question 3 of 10

A cam lesion is best described as:

A

Excessive acetabular coverage over the femoral head

B

A torn labrum

C

An irregularly shaped femoral head that prevents smooth movement

D

Cartilage degeneration inside the joint

Question 4 of 10

An anterior pelvic tilt (APT) can contribute to impingement because it:

A

Pulls the femur too far posteriorly in the socket

B

Decreases acetabular coverage


C

Places the femur in relative hip flexion and reduces room for further flexion


D

Improves internal rotation range

Question 5 of 10

When addressing pelvic positioning for impingement, finding and strengthening which muscle group can help reposition the pelvis?

A

Proximal hamstrings

B

Hip flexors

C

Deep external rotators

D

Quadriceps

Question 6 of 10

During a squat, if both knees and feet turn out excessively, this may indicate:

A

Excessive internal rotation dominance

B

Avoidance of internal rotation and glute lengthening

C

Strong adductors

D

Hamstring dominance

Question 7 of 10

When concentrically contracting the glutes during hip extension (coming out of a squat), we want:

A

The back to arch and ribs to flare


B

Knees to lock before hips extend

C

Glutes and hamstrings to pull the pelvis through and down

D

Hips to shove forward past the rib cage

Question 8 of 10

The adductors can assist hip function by:

A

Only bringing the leg toward midline

B

Pulling the sit bones away from midline when the femur is fixed

C

Increasing anterior pelvic tilt exclusively

D

Preventing glute engagement

Question 9 of 10

In thoracic rotation, optimal core-driven movement occurs when:

A

The paraspinals extend the spine

B

The QL side-bends the trunk

C

The external oblique connects with the opposite internal oblique


D

The hip flexors initiate rotation

Question 10 of 10

Before strengthening the psoas in someone with hip impingement, it is important to:

A

Stretch it aggressively

B

Increase hip flexion range only

C

Strengthen deep hip rotators first

D

Decrease stiffness and address rib cage, pelvis, and femur positioning
