As noted above, the adductors (particularly the adductor longus) are commonly a site of muscle strain injury in sports (see review by Nicholas and Tyler, 2002).

For example, it has been noted that both the adductor longus and adductor brevis contain large intra-muscular tendons, that the adductor brevis and gracilis are fused together at the proximal end, that the proximal adductor longus is attached to the pubic symphysis and also connects with the rectus abdominis muscle (Davis et al. 2012).

Similarly, studies in normal healthy males using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans have reported very high values for the adductor magnus of around 599.2 ± 79.4 cm ³ and much smaller values for the adductor longus (182.5 ± 18.0 cm ³) and the other adductors (from 72.0 ± 9.1 to 111.3 ± 16.6 cm ³)(Miokovic et al. 2012).

The adductor longus is widely known as the adductor that is commonly strained (see reviews by Renström and Peterson, 1980; Nicholas and Tyler, 2002; Davis et al. 2012) although there are case reports of strains to the adductor brevis (Attarian, 1999) and the gracilis (Pedret et al. 2011).

The adductor magnus, adductor longus, adductor brevis and pectineus display similar fascicle lengths, while the gracilis is much longer and the obturator externus is much shorter.

The adductor longus, adductor brevis and gracilis are less pennated, with angles of around 6 — 8 degrees (Ward et al. 2009).

Adductor longus: originates on the ramus of the pubis on the pelvis; inserts on the linea aspera of the femur

In contrast, the adductor longus, adductor brevis, gracilis, pectineus and obturator externus are much smaller, although their volumes range widely, from the pectineus at 13 ml to the adductor longus at 188 ml.

Dostal et al. (1986) reported that the adductor longus, adductor brevis, gracilis, obturator externus, and pectineus displayed lengths of 0.7 cm, 0.5 cm, -0.3 cm, -0.4 cm, and 1.0 cm respectively.

Also, in soccer, it has been suggested that the adductor longus is particularly at risk during kicking actions, because of the high degree of strain in this muscle during this type of movement (Charnock et al. 2009).

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.

In contrast, the adductor longus, adductor brevis, gracilis, pectineus and obturator externus are much lighter.

There are preliminary indications that hip adductor strengthening programs may be beneficial for reducing the incidence of adductor - related groin strain injury (Engebretsen et al. 2008; Hölmich et al. 2010; see review by Esteve et al. 2015) and also that wearing compression shorts may be beneficial for reducing the load on the adductor longus during return to sport post-injury, by virtue of reducing the muscle activity during cutting actions (Chaudhari et al. 2014).

Dostal et al. (1986) reported muscle moment arms of -4.1 cm, -2.1 cm, and -3.6 cm for the adductor longus, adductor brevis and pectineus, respectively.

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

Indeed, the adductor longus, adductor brevis and pectineus appear to be relatively competent hip flexors.

However, it is noteworthy that Pressel and Lengsfeld (1998) found that the hip flexion action of the adductor longus muscle was limited to hip flexion angles of up to 90 degrees only.

Dostal et al. (1986) reported muscle moment arms of 7.1 cm, 7.6 cm, and 7.1 cm for the adductor longus, adductor brevis, and gracilis, respectively.

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.

The other adductors (i.e. the adductor longus, adductor brevis, gracilis and obturator externus) do not produce hip extension but are in fact mostly hip flexors.

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

The adductor magnus, adductor longus, adductor brevis and pectineus display lengths of around 10 — 14 cm (Friederich & Brand, 1990; Horsmann et al. 2007; Ward et al. 2009).
