Been driving me nuts for the past 4 weeks. Everything I am doing to try and fix (foam rolling etc) just seems do nothing. Anyone else have pain in their hip from farmers and yokes whilst actually performing the event?

No problem at all when squatting and deadlifting which is why I am baffled Unhappy

Yes

Try hip abductor and adductor machine and barbell lunges.

If this doesn't work, try a stretch with band called a clam (I think).

If its not a clam, I'll try and describe. Lie on your side, put band round your legs, bend knees so feet go towards arse, and without moving the leg that is in contact with floor, move the other leg towards the sky. This should stretch out nicely.

But hopefully if this doesn't make sense, it is a clam so just YouTube it.

worth getting them checked out and re-adjusted if needed by a physio , perhaps try and be more fluid in your technique, shortening your stride length on those events using shorter faster steps should help

Just get your IT band checked, I ripped mine and it hurt like fook and gave in impression that I'd screwed my hip joint. It hurt especially when driving long distances

Was IT band. Got checked over by a colleague at uni (physio). Got some supplementary exercises, naproxen and more sleep prescribed.
