Technique
How to do the Hip Adduction (Machine)
- Sit down on the hip abduction machine and place your feet flat on the footrests while positioning your outer thighs against the padded levers.
- Grip the side handles to stabilize your upper body and press your legs outward against the resistance, pushing the pads apart in a controlled motion.
- Pause for a second at the peak of the movement, then slowly return to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired repetitions.
Form cues
Getting it right
- Sit upright with your back firmly against the backrest to maintain proper posture.
- Focus on squeezing your glutes and outer thighs throughout the movement.
- Perform the movement slowly and avoid using momentum to push the legs outward.
