OK, whenever I go jogging, my right hip flexor starts hurting. And it hurts usually for a few days after (so I don't jog any more). The pain feels like it is in a muscle right where the leg and hip connect. It hurts most when I flex the hip joint (i.e. bring my knee up), doesnt hurt otherwise, so I can do squats and shit fine. I know I should see a doc but I dont have the money, and I am sure he will say rest it for 3 weeks and stretch it and take advil (all of which I am doing).
So I wonder, anyone have any good rehab or strengthening exercises for that muscle? I ask because I had physical therapy on my calf once and they had all sort of crazy exercises I never would have thought of, and they worked like a charm. So anyone know of any good hip flexor exercises?

) and after about a week, not only did my hip problem go away, my flexability increased massive amounts, which led to deeper squats and much better dead lifts. (its hard to be flexible when ur 6'3" and 290) but yea, pilates is awesome. i know it sounds awefully immasculating but it works
