We've included the use of a hip band in our workouts for hips as it adds some resistance to help build your abductors and keeps these exercises from becoming too easy for you as your strength builds. One-legged exercises are great as they require hip abductor activation in order to keep your body stable. You want to perform exercises that will isolate the abductor muscles to see your best results.
Simple exercises like squats are generally great, but they don't specifically focus on your hip abductors so you still end up with strength imbalances in your legs (stronger quads than abductors). The best way to strengthen your hip abductors is by incorporating exercises into your strength routine that activate these muscles regularly. How do you strengthen your hip abduction muscle? Improving your abductor strength will improve your speed, performance, and prevent joint injury. This uneven training wastes a lot of strength and means running at a slower pace.
Runners tend to have weaker glutes and very strong quadriceps. Some injuries, like patellofemoral pain syndrome (knee pain, also known as runner's knee) and IT band syndrome are commonly experienced by runners with weak hip abductors. If you have weak hip abductors you will be more prone to injury, as it will put more pressure on your joints - specifically your knees, ankles, and feet. The four primary hip abductor muscles are: They're technically a part of your core and work with your abdominal and back muscles to provide core stability, build balance, and maintain good posture. The hip abductors are a group of muscles that help to create movement and stabilize your body as you perform other tasks. What are hip abduction exercises good for?
