Many standard adductor stretches can actually irritate your knees and hips. Learn three exercises to safely strengthen those muscles and transfer that strength and stability to life and sport.

These exercises will focus on building length in the muscle and stability in the end ranges of motion. They'll help loosen any tightness.

Exercise 1 improves adductor muscle length and will help improve the range of motion in your hips. You'll build strength in a wide-stance position.

Exercise 2 works the concentric and eccentric motion of the adductors. It builds the strength you need to prevent injuries to the adductors and groin.

Exercise 3 requires a cable or strength band. You'll need to anchor it at about belly button height. It'll improve speed and balance in this stance and the accompanying crossover movement. Start slow with low reps for this one as you're leaning muscle activations. Once you've got it down, you can increase the speed and the reps.
