Instructions for Proper Form
Setup:
- Attachment: Attach an ankle cuff to a low pulley cable machine.
- Position: Secure the cuff around the ankle of your inside leg (the leg closest to the machine). Stand sideways to the machine, holding onto it for support.
The Movement:
- Pull: Keeping your leg straight, use your inner thigh muscles to pull your leg across the front of your standing leg.
- Squeeze: Squeeze your adductors at the end of the range of motion.
- Return: Slowly and with control, allow your leg to return to the starting position.
- Repeat: Complete all reps on one side before switching the cuff to the other ankle and facing the opposite direction.
Tips:
- Keep your torso upright and stable; avoid leaning to help move the weight.
- The movement should be slow and controlled to isolate the inner thigh muscles.
- Start with a light weight to master the form.
