Do you get a persistent, dull ache or sharp pain right on the outside of your hip when you run, hike, or even try to sleep on your side? Outer hip pain—clinically known as Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome (GTPS)—is one of the most common yet mismanaged issues among active outdoor enthusiasts and field athletes.
In this episode, we demystify GTPS and break down what is actually happening at the lateral hip socket. While it was historically labeled as "trochanteric bursitis," modern sports medicine shows that GTPS is most often a compression and load-management issue involving the gluteus medius and minimus tendons. We explore why crossover running strides, steep hiking trails, and aggressive IT band stretches create excessive compressive force over the bony trochanter, worsening tendon irritation. Most importantly, we share actionable, step-by-step strategies to offload sensitive tissues, adjust daily posture and sleeping habits, and build true lateral hip capacity so you can get back to training without pain.
