MULTI-HIP (SL50)

Exercises

Muscle exercised: The multi hip machine can be used in four different ways as

shown in the figure above. The exercises use the hip adductors, hip abductors,

gluteus.

Setup: Select desired weight. Adjust the foot plate so that the pivot point aligns

with the hip. Adjust the roller pad so that it will be either just above the knee (for

abduction or flexion) or just under the knee (for adduction or extension exercises).

For hip abduction and adduction, face the weight stack and hold the handles. For

hip flexion and extension, turn 90 degrees away from the weight stack.

Performing the exercise: Grip the handles for the exercise you will be performing.

Lift and lower the weight with the pad either over or under the thigh.
