SIZE MATTERS. The largest ever recorded Blue Whale measured 108 feet (33 meters) in length! Typical adult Blue Whales tend to measure approximately 75-100 feet (22-30 meters).
A FEW OF THE HIP FLEXOR TENDONS. As you might imagine, the âHip Flexorsâ are muscles that flex your hips. Flexion of the hip is easy to understand. If you bring your knee toward your chest, you are flexing your hip.
When you spend a lot of time in a seated position, the hip flexors remain in a shortened position. Over time, the shortened muscles become âtight, which leads to its own set of problems. Tight hip flexors can result in lower back pain, hip pain and injury. A lot of strain is put on those muscles during activities that involve sprinting and kicking. For example, runners are more prone to hip flexor injuries because of the small, repetitive movement during running.
