Coach's Tips

Use the hip abduction machine to strengthen your outer glutes and hip muscles.

1. Stand on the machine and secure your torso to the pad or handle.

2. Place the leg you will be moving on the pad and keep the supporting leg on the floor.

3. Keep your upper body upright and engage your core.

1. Balance on the supporting leg and push the pad to the side to spread the legs.

2. Hold at the point where the side of the hip contracts for 1 second.

3. Slowly control and return to the starting position.

4. After the specified number of repetitions, switch legs and repeat.

Exhale when you spread your legs, and inhale when you return.

1. Please keep your pelvis horizontal so that your upper body does not tilt together.

2. Instead of forcing yourself to stretch all the way, proceed within a pain-free range.

3. If you feel a lot of strain in your lower back, please reduce the weight.
