Alternating Seated Side Wide Adduction

1. Begin by sitting on the floor with your legs spread wide apart. Keep your back straight and your toes pointed upwards.

2. Place your hands on the floor in front of you for stability.

3. Lean your torso slightly forward to increase the stretch in your inner thighs.

4. Shift your weight to one side, allowing one knee to bend and that foot to move towards the inside of the opposite leg’s knee. This movement targets the adductor muscles of the straight leg.

5. Hold the position for a few seconds, feeling the stretch in the inner thigh of your straight leg.

6. Return to the starting position with both legs wide apart.

7. Repeat the movement on the opposite side, bending the other knee and bringing the foot towards the inside knee of the straight leg.

8. Perform this alternating movement for the desired number of reps and sets, maintaining a controlled and steady pace.

Please ensure to warm up before performing this exercise and only stretch to a point of mild tension, not pain. Consult with a fitness professional if you're unsure about your form or if you have any pre-existing conditions that may be affected by this exercise.
