If you’re not training your adductors specifically, you’re leaving power on the table (and giving yourself back and hip pain while you’re at it👎).
.
The adductor group essentially runs from the pelvis to the inside of the femur and tibia.......and is critical in your ability to generate power in your squat. 😉
.
The other gap that is filled by this group is maintaining balance of the pelvis, which means that when one side pulls harder than the other, your pelvis slides to one side.
.
The side effect of all of this asymmetry is that force is fed into the low back in a haphazard way and the discs and tissues take on a work load that they aren’t designed for.
.
When adductors function properly, the bottom of a squat loads the stretch reflex which in turn generates gobs of power to come out of the hole. Yeah exactly, let’s get started.
.
Here’s what to do.
.
1️⃣ Toes Out Plate squat hold
2️⃣ Adductor slide
3️⃣ Adductor Slide Out
4️⃣ Adductor Tempo Squat
.
Go and do. Smash you later!
