I’ve been struggling with ITB/hip-flexor/something-not-quite-right on one side. I think I still need to mostly avoid stretching, but I’ve tried some hip bridges, lateral steps, and monster walks. When the IT band was definitely flaring up, I tried following the ITB rehab routine from strengthrunning.com , and it worked well as a quick fix, but I don’t think it addresses the underlying issues. More recently I have been the MYRTL routine.
