Adductor

What it is

This exercise uses a foam roll to release tension in your adductor muscles. It targets the muscles along your inner thigh, helping to improve flexibility and reduce soreness in this area. You will perform this movement by applying pressure and rolling slowly across the muscle tissue.

Technique tips

• Shift your weight slowly onto the foam roll to control the intensity.
• Relax the muscles of your inner thigh as you roll.
• Hold on tender spots for 10 to 30 seconds to allow for release.
• Roll between your hip and knee, avoiding direct pressure on joints.
• Breathe deeply throughout the movement to aid muscle relaxation.
• Adjust your body position to find the most effective angle.

How to track your progress
