Day eleven of the ISO-Band Program is marked with integrated isometric training to target the muscles that perform adduction and abduction of the hips. These muscles cross the hips, knees, and pelvis. All of the positions that we will practice in this video center around the frontal plane.

These exercises will be done from quadruped, sidelying, supine, and standing positions. Notice how the hip position affects the recruitment of the inner and outer thigh! You will be targeting the gluteus maximus, medius, and minimus. These are necessary for the health of the knees, hips, and ankles.

Also, remember that the outer hip is one of the most important regions to train in terms of mobility. It is often the case that weakness in the outer hips leads to instability, especially when standing on one leg. Keeping these muscles strong will help keep the hip joint (muscles, bone, ligament, tendon) strong and decrease the risk of falls.

All levels are welcome.
