Hip Adductor Stretch
Areas of Concentration:
Hips, Hamstrings, Lower Back, Inner Thighs, Glutes
Method:
Sit tall with good posture. Bring your legs in towards your body while placing the soles of your feet together. Bring in your heels as close as possible to your body. Grab the PowerBench handle with both hands. Make sure that you retain good posture throughout this stretch. Push the “forward-slow” button to pull you forward to a challenging but acceptable position.
Breathe easily throughout this stretch. Hold this position for 5-10 seconds and then press the “back-slow” button to back off and rest for 5-10 seconds. Then repeat this stretch, going farther forward than the previous time to a new position that is both a challenging and acceptable level of stretch. Again, back off and rest for 5-10 seconds.
PowerBench Tips:
Variations such as the amount of time the user “holds the stretch”, the amount of time of “rest between stretches”, the number of “stretches per routine” and additional stretches should be determined by the level of the user.
Remember – for maximum benefit in the shortest amount of time, breathe easy and maintain good posture during this stretch.
Remember – the PowerBench has a built-in safety feature – simply press the “release” button at any time for a quick release of tension
