| Description: |
- Set up for the cable hip adduction by attaching an ankle strap (if one is not available, a single handle may suffice) to the low pulley of a cable pulley machine and set your desired weight on the stack.
- Attach the ankle strap to your left ankle and stand up straight with your feet close together with your left foot closest to the machine.
- You can use your left arm to hold onto the machine for stability. You are now in the staring position.
- Begin the movement by lifting your left foot off the floor to take the weight off the rack.
- Keep your leg as straight as possible and begin slowly moving it across your body until your ankle passes your standing leg.
- Pause for a moment and then slowly reverse the movement and bring your leg back to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired amount of reps.
- Turn around, attach the the strap to your right ankle and then repeat with your right leg.
