Quadruped Hip Abduction

Description

Quadruped hip abduction is a targeted exercise that strengthens the muscles of the hips, particularly the gluteus medius and minimus. In this exercise, individuals start on all fours with their knees directly under the hips and hands under the shoulders. They then lift one leg out to the side while keeping the knee bent at a 90-degree angle, engaging the hip abductors. Quadruped hip abduction helps improve hip stability, prevent injury, and enhance overall lower body strength and function when performed with proper form and control.
