The hip joints are one of the most mobile parts of the human body and thus enable almost all movements that are necessary. Therefore, training these muscle groups is actually very important and should therefore be quite extensive. However, abductions in the hip joint are not performed by the muscles located on the thigh, but by the gluteal muscles. This is why abduction exercises are more popular with women than with men, because it tightens the buttocks.
What does the machine do?
As with an adductor machine, the user sits on the abductor machine. However, the weight of the machine pushes inward rather than outward as with the adductor machine. The movements are simplified because the user is seated during the exercises, so there is no risk to the joints and spine.
Training at home is becoming increasingly popular because people simply don't have the time to go to a gym, or they simply don't want to spend the money on it.

Who wants to buy such a device, but must pay attention to some details, because even used abductors machines are not exactly cheap.
What should be considered when buying?
The abductors machine should have biomechanical processes and have an ergonomic sitting position, this ensures the correct posture and everyone can be sure to achieve optimal results.
