Leg Adductor & Abductor Toning Workout

Leg Adductors and Abductors are the muscles responsible for moving the legs away from the body (abduction) and back towards the body (adduction). Toning these muscles can be difficult depending on genetics and current activity level. Utilizing a body bar can assist in toning these muscles.

Abductor Toning Workout:
- Lay down and place the weighted bar on the top leg.
- Lift the top leg up and away from the lower leg.
- Lower the leg back down in a controlled manner.
- Repeat for the opposite leg.

Adductor Toning Workout:
- Lay down and place the weighted bar on the bottom leg.
- Cross the top leg over the bottom and place flat on the floor.
- Lift the bottom leg up and away from the floor.
- Lower the bottom leg back down in a controlled manner.
- Repeat for the opposite leg.
