If you’re looking to:
Build overall better looking legs
Improve your squat, deadlift, or sprint speed
Minimize the risk of groin strains, knee or hip pain

You need to strengthen one of the most often neglected muscle groups, especially for guys, the hip adductor muscles.

The adductor muscles are found on the inner thigh and are comprised of a group 5 muscles:
Adductor magnus
Adductor brevis
Adductor longus
Gracilis
Pectineus

These inner thigh adductor muscles are targeted with exercises that bring your legs together. Unfortunately, in everyday movements, such as sitting, walking, and climbing stairs, the adductor muscles receive very little strengthening work.

Even with a traditional leg workout that targets your quadriceps and hamstrings, your adductor muscles may not be getting the necessary treatment to get stronger. Unless you are training your quadriceps and hamstrings with a wide stance, or incorporating unilateral side to side exercises, you may be neglecting them. This is why so many men and women have weak adductor muscles.

To reduce risk of injury it’s also important to have a balanced hip adductor to hip abductor strength ratio. Since the primary hip abductor muscles are the powerful glute muscles, the strength ratio is often out of whack. When this occurs, it can increase the risk of groin strains. This makes it even more important to strengthen your adductor muscles.

The most effective way to target and strengthen your hip adductor muscles, is to incorporate a combination of compound and isolation leg movements that use a wider stance, as well as unilateral exercises with split stances that move side to side.

Here are 7 compound and 9 isolation inner thigh exercises to strengthen hip adduction muscles.

Inner Thigh Compound Exercises:
1. Sumo deadlift:
The sumo squat is a deadlift variation that uses a wider stance. This wider stance allows you to get your hips lower, which helps target the inner thigh adductor muscles more.

2. Wide Stance Squat
3. Walking Lateral Lunge
4. Bulgarian Split Squat
5. Jump Lunges
6. Lateral Step Up
7. Lateral Sled Pull

Inner Thigh Isolation Exercises:
1. Adductor machine
2. Standing Resistance Band hip adduction
3. Standing Cable Hip Adduction
4. Standing Single Leg Hip Adduction Machine
5. Side Lying Hip Adduction
6. Side Lying Hip Adduction Leg Scissor
7. Copenhagen Hip Adduction
8. Adductor side plank
9. Adductor plate slide

Since the inner thigh adductor muscles have a greater proportion of slow twitch muscle fibers, many of these movements should be targeted with higher reps.
