Hip Circles
Hip circles are great for limbering tight joints and can be fun. While they don’t take a lot of effort, they pay big dividends in decreasing joint tightness and increasing mobility.

Step 1: Stand with your knees close together and your feet no more than a few inches apart.
Step 2: Begin moving your hips in a circular pattern, drawing an imaginary circle with your navel. Start with a comfortably sized circle, then try to draw the biggest circle you can as your muscles and joints warm up.
Step 3: Circle clockwise for one minute, then reverse into a counterclockwise direction for another minute.
Step 4: This counts as one set. Try performing three total sets.

This exercise is easy to do anywhere and anytime; I encourage you to do it often.
