PROGRESSION · HOW TO DO IT

Strict cable hip abduction

These steps are written specifically for the Strict cable hip abduction. Follow them in order and stop before you lose the position.

  1. 01
    Set up your version

    Set up specifically for the Strict cable hip abduction. Set the cable to create tension through the full path without pulling you out of position.

  2. 02
    Move the pattern

    Keep the pelvis level as you move the cuffed leg out to the side, leading with the heel.

  3. 03
    Match the demand

    Treat this version as the only progression; do not add load, range, and tempo at the same time.

  4. 04
    Finish with control

    Stop before the torso leans, pause, and return the leg slowly without letting the stack pull you. Stay tall over the stance leg.

Strict cable hip abduction is a progression of Cable Hip Abduction. Use the written card above for its exact setup and execution.

Short range: Short range means the target muscle finishes squeezed in its shortened position.

WHY IT EARNS A SPOT

Own the position,
then earn the load.

The working leg moves away from the midline and finishes with the hip abductors shortened while the cable supplies consistent tension.
