Squat - Hip Flexibility.

[HandyAndy]

My quads and hams are always tight during squats, after stretching and warming up, I cant go parallel, i feel like im forcing myself to, my muscles are too tight and not stretched properly. Another problem I have during squats it pelvic pain, im not sure how to stretch my groin other than the squat stretch. What do you suggest I do to loosen up my leg muscles? Maybe a quick jog, stretch and warmup some more?

These will really help:

Just one set of 10 reps for every stretch should do. Try doing them multiple times a day. Focus hard on the ankle stretches. They are just as important as the hip stretches.

Also do some shoulder dislocations: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33P5AI27eiU&eurl=http://stronglifts.com/shoulders-dislocations/
