“Yoga butt” is often blamed on poor alignment in yoga poses. But is the science really that simple?
In this episode of the Enlightened Anatomy Podcast, Matthew Huy explores the research behind proximal hamstring tendinopathy (PHT), why alignment probably doesn’t predict injury as much as social media suggests, and why modern tendon science is more about load, recovery, and capacity than “perfect posture.”
Topics include: • What PHT actually is • Why “yoga butt” is a misleading term • Tendon adaptation and the Cook & Purdam model • Why pain ≠ tissue damage • The limits of alignment-based explanations • Load vs capacity in yoga practice • Why fear-based cueing can backfire
