The adductor longus, adductor brevis, gracilis all have substantial hip adduction muscle moment arms.

As a whole (all heads working together), the pectoralis major assists adduction (lowering upper arm from side raise position to the midline of the body), medial rotation (rotating upper arm forward or inward to the midline of the body) and horizontal flexion (moving the upper arm from a side raise position to the front of the body).

Some common adductor / inner thigh exercises are... Standing Cable Adduction Side Lying Ankle Weight Adductions Seated Adductor / Inner Thigh Machine

Single - joint exercises involving shoulder horizontal adduction also produce high levels of pectoralis major activation.

They can be done for a range of different shoulder movmements to strengthen the muscles around the entire joint including adduction, abduction, flexion, extension and rotation.

When you're doing lunges, thigh adductions or other leg exercises, make sure that you're doing full stretches and contractions.

It could be incredibly time management wise a big value you don't have to have the lateral adduction the lateral abduction; the leg press, the quad, the hamstring curls the leg extension, and you're creating athletic muscular recruitment which has immediate carryover.

This instability makes the exercise much more functional than a machine adduction while also allowing you to use enough weight to build strength.

Abduction is just the anatomical term for out to the side or away from your body's midline, and adduction simply means moving closer to your body's midline.

In the specific case of the toes and fingers, adduction refers to bringing the digits together toward the center of the hand or foot.

Teres Major internally rotates the humerus in neutral and will assist in adduction when the shoulder is abducted.

Seated Dumbbell Wrist Curls Dumbbell Reverse Wrist Curls Dumbbell Pronation and Supination Dumbbell Abduction (Radial Deviation) Dumbbell Adduction (Ulnar Deviation)

These studies have found that hip extension movements do not differ in their ability to produce a high level of EMG amplitude in the adductor longus but that most hip adduction movements are effective.

As you can see from the pictures above, the flat bench press involves a larger shoulder horizontal adduction angle than the incline bench press.

Ackland et al. (2008) showed that the pectoralis major (superior sternocostal head) displayed a peak moment arm length for shoulder adduction at 41 degrees (length = +32.9 mm) and a minimum at 120 degrees (length = -17.7 mm), while the pectoralis major (inferior sternocostal head) displayed a peak at 64 degrees (length = +33.6 mm) and a minimum also at 120 degrees (length = -16.2.

Since the adductor magnus is a much larger muscle but is less effective at producing hip adduction as the adductor longus and adductor brevis, this may influence why these smaller muscles are more frequently injured in sport.

However, it did not increase maximal isometric hip adduction force.

The moment arm length rises quickly as the shoulder moves from zero degrees (arms by side) to 30 degrees adduction where it starts to plateau, reaching its peak at 40 degrees and starting to tail off at 60 degrees.

Judge discusses elements of trial and explains objections, adduction of evidence, subpoenaing of witnesses and related matters.

Since low eccentric strength has been identified as a risk factor for adductor - related groin injuries (see review by Hrysomallis, 2009), eccentric adduction strength is often a particular focus of such programs.

In direct contrast, the pectoralis major has a very large shoulder adduction moment arm length, making it perhaps the most effective muscle for moving in the opposite direction (bringing the arms down to the anatomical position from out to the sides).

The adductor magnus, adductor longus, adductor brevis, gracilis all have substantial hip adduction muscle moment arms.

Shoulder adduction involves bringing them back down again.

The hip adduction machine (inner thigh) and abduction (outer thigh) machine can put stress on the lower back.

In direct contrast, the pectoralis major has a very large shoulder horizontal adduction moment arm length, making it easily the most effective muscle for moving in the opposite direction.
