Seated Forward Leg Learning Abduction

Setup

1. Sit on the machine with your back firmly against the backrest.

2. Adjust the pads so they are resting against the outside of your knees.

3. Grab the side handles to stabilize your upper body.

Movement

1. Push your knees outward against the pads, using your hips to move the weight stack outward.

2. Continue until your legs are abducted as far as comfortably possible, ensuring your back remains against the seat.

3. Pause briefly to squeeze your gluteus medius.

4. Return slowly to the starting position, controlling the weight throughout the eccentric phase until the pads return to the center.
