Hip Abductions...You're Doing It WRONG

When trying to target the glues in this commonly performed exercise, many people pay no attention to positioning of the leg and therefore completely lose the benefits of this movement. Whether you are in physical therapy or a booty building workshop, the goal for hip abductions remains the same, to work the glute medius and minimus to abduct the hip. Performing these incorrectly as shown here will completely shut off the glutes and instead, the hip flexors will take over and do all the work.
Follow these simple guidelines to make sure the right muscles are doing the work and share this one with your friends to save them from wasting their time performing hundreds of useless reps in the gym.
