The Abductor-Adductor Machine

The abductor adductor machine works by moving the legs inward and outward against resistance to target the inner and outer thigh muscles. This equipment is versatile and helps to strengthen and tone the thighs while improving lower body stability and balance.

Adductor Exercises without Machine (Adductor Exercises with Bands)

Adductor Exercises without Machine (Adductor Exercises with Bands) The adductor muscle group often gets forgotten about in training besides the Copenhagen plank. But training your adductors can have a very positive response in improving hip pain, back pain, and knee pain. It also has the ability to improve adductor flexibility and hip internal rotation.

🌟🌟Hip Internal Rotation🌟🌟 We need hip internal rotation at strike phase of gait. Train it! Many of us lack hip internal rotation and are making compensations all the way up the kinetic chain as a result. Here’s a warm up exercise that works hip internal rotation in your front lunge leg and dynamically into external rotation as you move into deep squat. It’s important to be able to find neutral and stabilize neutral at each joint YET also move through the joint’s full active range of motion. #hipinternalrotation #lunges #deepsquat #hiphealth #corectology #ajfishertrainer #warmup #gluteusmedius #hiprotators #glutesworkout

We tend to work primarily on hip external rotation but its just as important to have the proper internal rotation of the hip as well. Here movement specialist Brian shoes us a creative hip internal rotation drill, that works the mobility of the hips and the ankles. If this is a new position for you try it while holding onto a TRX, resistance band, anything that can add a little support so you can work on the movement and control first.⠀ ⠀ Demo By: @briangfox⠀ ・・・⠀ ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••⠀ Looking for health & fitness professionals, information, tips, advice?

Can a loss of stance phase internal hip rotation cause us to circumduct the swing leg? My thoughts this morning.

This is why i like to read articles, and then sit back and say, "but what else?".

Here is a study (link below) that said, "It has long been held that hip abduction compensates for reduced swing-phase knee flexion angle, especially in those after stroke. However, there are other compensatory motions such as pelvic obliquity (hip hiking) that could also be used to facilitate foot clearance with greater energy efficiency. Our previous work suggested that hip abduction may not be a compensation for reduced knee flexion after stroke. "

Ok, maybe. . . . in stroke patients. We will give them that, but not the extrapolation to everyone else who is "non-stroke". They should have put that in their title, a little misleading in our opinion.

Clearly, hip abduction is a possible strategy for reduced knee clearance. Just because it is not a energy efficient strategy deemed by their study, it DOES NOT mean it is is not a possible pattern that is feasible for a client. People do not pick compensations by their calculated energy efficiency. The brain picks it because it is what makes sense at the time. Variables including pain avoidance, leg length discrepancy, weakness or strength or other variables are what the brain takes into account. One could argue that ANY compensation is less energy efficient than the optimal biomechanical pattern, but still we ALL compensate in some way every day around our weaknesses, limitations, pain, habitual patterns everyday. Energy efficiency is only one small variable, and i would argue that pain limitation or avoidance is a much stronger "choice" determinant that energy efficiency.

*But, here was my thought of the day, one that will percolate all day i suspect. If a person has significant limitation of hip internal rotation on one side , completing swing phase on the opposite side is a challenge mechanically. Pelvis hike or obliquity is an option to help get that swing leg through. But is swing leg hip circumduction a possible strategy to help get past the internal hip rotation loss on the stance leg? Could it help hike the pelvis a little and assist the process as part of the package? We have to get that swing leg through. We can, and often do, work harder through the swing leg hip flexors, but that is not their job, they are perpetuators of swing, not drivers of the motion. This increased use and tone can be a contributing source of anterior hip pain. But, a more common strategy is to adductory twist the stance leg foot (spin it into external rotation) to help oblique the pelvis and thus get that swing leg through more effortlessly. But what about a little swing leg circumduction to add to that? MAybe a little of both is less drastic by just using one strategy ? Hmmmmmmm, something i need to be on the look out for. More on this another time.

We alter our kinematics to suit us, whether it is from pain, avoiding or minimizing pain, but i would fathom to guess that energy efficiency is not the top shelf choice. That is when we are healthy, strong, full ROM, pain free.

''SHIN Pigeon'' _____________________ Anterior Tibialis (shin) is a major compensator in gait! If your hip lacks internal rotation, this muscle will overwork as you swing the leg through. The shin is a challenging muscle to mobilize, BUT especially because it is such a fast twitch fiber, it is SO important that you pay attention to mobilizing and inhibiting this muscle alongside your other big, fast muscles. These are the muscles that really have the POWER to pull you out of alignment and do some major damage if not cared for. I look at the ANT TIB as the pec of the lower leg. (Oh yeah, foam roll your PECS for total body health and alignment!) _____________________ SHIN PIGEON - use your pigeon pose to mobilize anterior tibialis. If you can put a roller under your front shin, it becomes a wonderful myofasciak release on top of a CORE challenge. If you have access to a reformer, push into a red and yellow spring with back foot to improve ankle flexibility (calf stretch) AND get an extra special release in your psoas. With no reformer, just put a towel under your back bal of foot and add a band for extra resistance. _____________________ #flexfriday #corectology #shin #anteriortibialis #shinstretch #myofascialrelease #pigeon #ajfishertrainer #psoasstretch #psoas #anklemobility #fascialstretchtherapy #fascia #fasttwitch #fasttwitchmuscles #hipinternalrotation #hiphealth #foamroller

HIP INTERNAL ROTATION! _____________________ If you don't have enough hip internal rotation (normal is 30-45 degrees), you cannot achieve full hip extension, which is SO crucial for not making compensations in your workout and simply, your gait! _____________________ Here's a fun and effective standing exercise that challenges your balance and your core as you work the hip medial rotators! _____________________ It's also important to release your hip external rotators if you are having a problem with hip internal rotation! _________ #hipinternalrotation #balancetraining #corectology #coreworkout #gait #ajfishertrainer

Internal tibial torsion + femoral retrotorsion + twisting = low back pain

Here’s one that we’ve talked about before. Think about internal tibial torsion for a moment. You remember when the tibial tuberosity points straightahead and the foot points inward?  Now combine that with femoral retro torsion. Remember that that’s when the angle of the femoral neck with the shaft is less than 8° which results in a loss of internal rotation of the hip.  Put those two together and you have a foot that points inward and limited internal rotation of the hip on that same side.  Stand on your right leg with your foot turned in. Twist your body to the right. Can you see how this is internal rotation of the right hip? If people have to create internal rotation of the hip, then the motion has to occur somewhere. If it is not available at the hip and the lower extremity is fully internally rotated it has to occur north of the hip which is usually in the lumbar spine. Now think about when people are lifting things. Often times they do not do a hip hinge and reverse or flatten their lumbar lordosis, opening up the facet joints which allows more rotation. Do you remember that rotation of the lumbar spine is limited to about 5° unilaterally? Where do you think that hip rotation is going to occur? Hmmmm... Probably north of the hip.  Better teach them to spin that weight bearing leg and foot out into some external rotation to create that needed range of motion, increase the amount of internal rotation of that hip or have them keep their shoulders and hips in the same plane when rotating.
