MYGH isn't about diagnosing yourself from a list on the internet.

It's for people with a grumpy outer hip who are finding things like walking, standing on one leg or lying on that side uncomfortable — and who want a structured way to start improving what their hip can tolerate.

There are also situations where I'd rather you were assessed individually first. I've included those below so you can make an informed decision about whether MYGH is appropriate for you.

You're not necessarily starting from scratch.

If you've been told to “strengthen your glutes” before and it either didn't help or made your hip grumpier, that doesn't automatically mean strengthening is the problem.

Sometimes the issue is what you were doing, how much you were doing, or where you started.

MYGH gives you a structured way to work out what your hip can tolerate now — then build from there.

That's okay. You don't have to start at the point where you're already comfortable doing 3 × 45 seconds of work.

MYGH gives you a way to start smaller, build your tolerance and progress from there. Starting counts.

I don't want you blindly pushing through pain.

MYGH teaches you how to use your symptoms as information while you build capacity — including what to do if your hip becomes more irritated. And if your symptoms don't fit the programme, or your response is outside the expected boundaries, that's a reason to modify or seek individual assessment — not simply push harder.

I get it. You're busy. You have work, family, animals, farming, training and approximately 47 other things that apparently need doing today. MYGH is designed around less than 15 minutes a day.

The goal isn't to give you more to do.

It's to give you something practical enough that you can actually do it.

How long you've had a grumpy hip doesn't tell us everything about what it can tolerate now.

MYGH isn't about pretending your hip hasn't been sore for months or years.

It's about starting from where you are and gradually building what your hip can handle.

You don't have to put your life on hold.

MYGH isn't about wrapping yourself in cotton wool until your hip is magically perfect.

You're still going to have a life to live.

The aim is to help you gradually build your hip's tolerance for the things you actually need and want to do.

Walking. Standing. Working. Training. Getting through your day.

Real strength for real life.

MYGH isn't designed to replace individual assessment or treatment.

If you're already working with a physio, check with them before adding another rehabilitation programme — particularly if you have a specific diagnosis, recent injury or other symptoms they're currently managing.

MYGH is not designed for everyone with hip pain.

Individual assessment may be more appropriate if your symptoms are unusual, severe, rapidly worsening, follow a significant injury, or you have other concerns that aren't covered by the programme.

I've included the full “Is this for me?” section before you purchase so you can make an informed decision.

You don't need to become a rehabilitation machine.

You don't need perfect motivation.

You need a starting point that feels doable.

MYGH is built around short, manageable sessions — because the best programme isn't the one that looks impressive on paper.

It's the one you can actually fit into your life.

Starting counts.

Of course you can.

There are thousands of free exercises online.

That's not really the problem.

The tricky bit is knowing:

• where to start

• how much to do

• what to do when your hip gets grumpy

• when to progress

• when to back off

• and how to build towards what you actually want to do

MYGH gives you the structure and progression, rather than handing you another random list of exercises.

This isn't a generic fitness programme.

MYGH has been created by a physiotherapist who's been working in musculoskeletal physiotherapy since 2002 — and who also understands what it's like to need your body to function in real life.

This isn't about perfect gym exercises performed in a perfect environment.

It's about building capacity for your actual life.

Because I'm inviting a small group of people to go through MYGH while I refine the programme based on real participant feedback and experience.

That means you get early access at a significantly reduced beta price.

You'll be helping shape the programme while getting access to the same core MYGH process I'm building for the final version.

No.

The beta means I'm testing and refining the programme experience, delivery and progression with a smaller group.

I'll be listening to your feedback and making improvements along the way.

I'll also be very clear about what the programme can and can't do — because I don't believe in promising miracles just because something is being sold online.

I can't promise that an online programme will fix your hip.

Anyone who does promise that should make you a little suspicious.

What I can promise is that MYGH gives you a structured process to work through rather than randomly guessing at exercises.

You'll know what you're doing, why you're doing it, how to progress and what to do if your hip becomes more grumpy.

Six weeks gives us a practical timeframe for working through the programme and seeing whether your hip's tolerance and comfort are changing.

It is not a guarantee that your hip will be completely pain-free in six weeks.

The goal is improvement — not a magic deadline.
