ADDUCTOR LEG LIFT

This is a hip adductor body weight exercise that uses gravity as light resistance. Start by lying down on your side with your top leg bent in front of you. Keep the bottom leg straight and lift it up towards the ceiling as high as possible. Hold for up to 10 seconds while doing a maximal contraction. Slowly lower the leg back down to the floor and repeat as required.

Muscles Involved:

  • Hip Adductors (Adductor Magnus, Adductor Brevis, Adductor Longus)

Related Condtions:

  • Hip Adductor Strain / Groin Strain

  • Pes Anserine Bursitis

  • MCL Tear
