90/90 Hip Crossover Overview
The 90/90 hip crossover drill is a great warm up exercise to perform prior to your workouts.

- Reach your arms out to the side for support and slowly rotate your legs side to side.
- Keep your head neutral and focus on controlling the rotation by utilizing your abdominals.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
