Performing the Exercise

Inner Thigh Workout

Now that you’re correctly positioned on the machine, let’s dive into the inner thigh workout:

  1. Select your desired weight resistance and engage the safety handles.
  2. Position your feet hip-width apart on the footplates, ensuring your toes point forward.
  3. Begin the movement by pushing your thighs outward against the resistance.
  4. Exhale and contract your inner thigh muscles, focusing on the outer movement.
  5. Slowly return to the starting position, allowing the weight stack to resist your movement.
  6. Repeat the exercise for the desired number of repetitions, maintaining control throughout the movement.
Outer Thigh Workout

To target your outer thighs effectively, follow these steps:

  1. Adjust the thigh pads so that they rest against the outer side of your thighs, just above your knees.
  2. Place your feet shoulder-width apart on the footplates, keeping your toes pointed forward.
  3. Select an appropriate weight resistance and engage the safety handles.
  4. Begin the exercise by pressing your thighs inward against the resistance.
  5. Exhale and contract your outer thigh muscles, emphasizing the inward movement.
  6. Gradually return to the starting position, resisting the weight stack’s pull.
  7. Repeat the exercise for the desired number of repetitions, maintaining control and focusing on the targeted muscles.

Safety Considerations

As with any exercise equipment, safety is paramount. Here are a few important points to keep in mind:

  1. Start with a manageable weight and gradually increase as your strength improves.
  2. Maintain proper form and avoid jerky or excessive movements to prevent injuries.
  3. Listen to your body and stop if you feel any discomfort or pain.
