Thigh Adductor
Exercise Data
Main Muscle Worked: Quadriceps
Other Muscles Worked: Hamstrings
Equipment: Machine
Mechanics Type: Isolation
Tips: The inner thighs are tough to work effectively, and the adductor machine is a welcome addition for both body-sculptors and serious bodybuilders alike. Angles are crucial in getting the most out of this movement. Keeping your back and butt where they belong, wedged well against the backrest and on the seat, respectively, is key. The movement is elementary in that you simply keep the inside of your knees pressed firmly against the pads as you move them together.
