Hip Abduction Machine
This machine is supposed to help you to target the small muscles in your hips, also known as your abductors that are responsible for extending your legs away from your midline. Even so, it isn’t as effective as another exercise, the glute one, which activates the same muscles, as Rachel MacPherson, an ACE-certified trainer and weight loss health coach explained.
As she said, “if you really want to grow nice and round glutes and avoid getting injured, the best thing is to use those muscles in the way they are supposed to be used: by using a lopped band while squatting, hip thrusting, or even deadlifting.”

I think instead of parties continuously fighting themselves, blaming the other, wasting time on irrelevent issues that mean nothing to the welfare of its citizens. Stop trying to raise retirement age, the underprivileged work hard enough trying to get there. LEAVE YOUR HANDS OUT OF IT, STOP USEING IT FOR YOUR DOWNFALLS.
behind neck press is only a problem if you go to WIDE.!!!!
Hi
Saying that crunches is bad, and that people can build a strong core without doing exercises that target the abs is flat out wrong. Very bad advice. Crunches are one of the most important exercises a person can do. Do most people do them perfectly? No. Still they’re incredibly valuable, because at the end of the day, supporting your core is one of the most important outcomes of any exercise regimen. I like having bigger biceps , but that’s all just for looks!
What is the point of giving alternate exercises if you don’t show what they look like?
