Is it a bad thing if you have sore hips?

[Castleberry]

I know that some types of soreness is considered good, while other soreness is a bad thing. (If you lift something heavy, and the next day your bicep muscles are sore, it is a good thing. But if your bac is sore the next day, it is a BAD thing).

I've been praticing the jab and the straight right cross to start with, and I've been focusing on twisting the hips when I punch. Having done this, my hips are now a bit sore (especially my right hip). I was wondering if it's okay for hips to be sore or not?

Now the pain in my hips is by no means excruciating or agonizing. I don't feel like I've pulled a muscle or injured myself or anything. I can still walk, bend down, twist my hips, run (although I feel the soreness a bit at first while jogging until I get warmed up), it's just a light soreness.

All I've done is just repitition boxed (I took Greynotold's advice in the other topic I started), haven't been going at it hard or fast than anything.

Forgot to mention, although I'm new in boxing and am just training at the house (no boxing gym or instructor), I've been on youtube closely watching videos from an account named Myboxingcoach. So it's not like I've used the wrong technique or anything.

Here's one of his videos.

It is par for the course to a degree as you have been saying, but don't let it get any worse.

If its still there a few days after training after a rest day and after not doing anything relating to hip stress then go get it seen to.

You probably haven't been doing light fast warm up exercises and progressive stretching before getting into serious repetitions.
That's a big mistake.

And it will catch up with you if you dont, and if thats in the hips then you will not be flowing through life very well at that stage, so take it seriously now and deal with it and get it right.

Try and go to a real coach or gym too they will be able to see more in you than you can see in you and get you into shape a lot faster and the correct way without falling into bad habits.

Hips move 6 Degrees to protect the Spine no more. Its the Feet and Knee that does the work to Direct the Hip and rotate the Body.

thanks for the advice; Andre what types of warm-up excercises and stretches would you recommend me doing?
