Kneeling Groin Slider
KNEELING GROIN SLIDER
This exercise is an eccentric control hip adductor exercise. In order to do this exercise correctly it is important to maintain a slow tempo as you slide your leg out. Step onto a slider or hand towel (if on hard flooring), and slide out your foot. Make sure to maintain downward pressure on the disc with your foot and minimize the amount of weight is in your non-slider leg. Drive your foot down into the floor and pull it into your midline to recruit your inner thigh muscles.
