Cable Hip Adduction

Technique

How to perform Cable Hip Adduction

1. Connect an ankle strap on the leg nearest the machine to a low pulley.
2. Stand sideways and hold the machine for balance, keeping your weight on the uncuffed leg.
3. Begin with the cuffed leg slightly out toward the pulley and the working knee nearly straight.
4. Draw that leg inward and across the front of your supporting leg without turning your pelvis.
5. Return slowly toward the pulley while keeping your torso steady, then repeat on the other side.
