GTPS or ‘greater trochanteric pain syndrome’ refers to pain felt at the lateral hip

Bursitis is often misdiagnosed as the main culprit when in most cases it’s more the gluteal tendons on the side

Why does this matter? Because it shifts us towards better more effective management

Reducing compression for a period is key. Things like hip hanging, crossed legs, stretches and hip ‘adduction’ in rehab are likely winding it up more than helping

Not all lateral hip pain is GTPS and other conditions can mimic it. A good assessment is important to find out what’s going on

IT band pain stopped Jack running more than 2km just 6 months before his first race

This year he ran the Manchester marathon and the Ultra Wales 50

We ditched the traditional model of foam rolling, stretching and rest and applied what actually works

Load management, graded rehab and structured progression towards his goals

The rest is history. Jack smashed every milestone along the way
