Noisy joints can be a sign that something isn’t quite right.
Yes, not all hips are the same. Yes, sometimes joints just make noise. Yes, if it doesn’t hurt, it’s generally not a big issue. But I’ve found that when my body makes noise, it’s trying to tell me something. My left knee pops and cracks, but my right doesn’t. And as I’ve gotten more mobile and stronger, my left knee doesn’t pop as much.
That means something to me, and I think it might be helpful for you too. Pay attention to the small pieces of your movement and a lot of the pains and issues go away. In this case, that means fixing hip rotation, hip shifts, and backing off to make the deep knee bend easier! Your body adapts to what you throw at it. If you want to be flexible and healthy for life, you need to move in all the ranges of motion.
