Band Hip Adductions
A 200-characters-or-less explanation of the exercise.
Instructions
- Step into a looped resistance band, placing it around your ankles.
- Stand with feet hip-width apart, knees slightly bent.
- Shift weight onto left leg and slowly abduct right leg against the band, engaging the muscles.
- Bring the leg back down with control, resisting the band's tension.
- Repeat for desired repetitions before switching legs.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Using momentum instead of controlled muscle engagement.
- Allowing the knees to lock, reducing effectiveness and increasing injury risk.
- Neglecting core engagement, which provides stability.
