Band Hip Adductions are like squeezing a honey pot between your knees - using a resistance band to pull across your body's middle. Perfect for stable legs!

Instructions

  1. Attach a resistance band to a fixed point near the floor.
  2. Stand with the side of your body facing the anchor point and loop the band around your inside ankle, ensuring it's tight enough to offer resistance.
  3. Hold onto a stable surface for balance if needed.
  4. Slowly bring your inside leg towards the midline of your body against the band's resistance.
  5. Pause briefly at the top and then slowly return to the starting position.
