comment Why is my outer hip tight when doing some inner thigh stretches?
If I do the stretch at the same angle as the guy in the video, it doesn't do much for me. But if I get into his position then bring my thigh towards my torso (still keeping the leg straight and close to the floor) so my leg is at least perpendicular to the rest of my body, omfg. I -think- it stretches the same spot as when I do bound angle pose. Am still stretching the gluteus medius in the modified position, or is it a different muscle?

comment Strengthening and healing the psoas (leg-lifting) muscle
This is definitely a challenge for the psoas muscle! The one problem I see with using it as your primary rehab strengthening exercise is that it only strengthens the psoas at one joint angle, which isn't that practical considering the range of joint angles you hit during sports.
