How to perform
1
Set up in the machine as you would for a standard abduction. Select a weight that is slightly lighter than what you normally use.
2
Push your legs outward to the end position.
3
Hold the position for 2-3 seconds, squeezing your glutes hard.
4
Then, perform 3-5 small, controlled pulses by moving your legs back and forth only a few centimeters.
5
Slowly and with control, return to the starting position. That is one repetition.
