The amount of time spent sitting, especially in a hip flexed position (around 90 degrees), is one of the primary environmental factors that perpetuates psoas tightness because the muscle is not given the opportunity to elongate in extended positions

Evidence Quote
“if on balance you spend more time in a sitting position where your hips Flex to about 90 OD de and not enough time in an extended position where your knee is traveling behind your hip then that so as muscle won't have the need to be elongated and loose because the environment that it's in is consistently asking it to be a lesser version of itself”
