Exercise W38: Adductor Training
Combination exercise: Strengthening the adductors & lateral core muscles – for advanced users, beginners use the static version in the starting posture.
Goal: Strengthening
Parameters: Frequency: 25 Hz to 30 Hz / position 1.0-3.0 (heel) / duration: 1 min.
Procedure:
Posture: Elbow rests on stepper, foot of upper leg rests on Galileo device, lower leg bent in the air, upper body and leg form a straight line
Movement: slowly lower your hips to just above the floor (no contact with the floor!), then slowly raise them again
Repetitions: Repeat the exercise for both legs.
Tip 1: Slow lowering (eccentric exercise) is a particularly effective exercise, so concentrate on slow lowering.
Tip 2: Since not all of your body weight is on your feet, they can lose their grip more easily at higher frequencies, so start the exercise with a narrower foot position and slightly in the lower frequency range (25Hz+) and gradually increase first the frequency and then the foot position.
Tip 3: To make the exercise easier, especially for beginners, it can also be performed statically in the basic position.
