- The hip adductor group, consisting of the gracilis, adductor magnus, adductor brevis, adductor longus, and pectineus muscles, are integral components of our pelvic region. These muscles are responsible for moving the thigh towards the center of the body, stabilizing the pelvis, and ensuring proper alignment during activities such as walking, running, and even standing. Their health and flexibility are paramount in maintaining optimal movement and preventing groin strains.
In this video, we introduce two dynamic stretching exercises tailored for the hip adductor group. Proper technique is paramount; hence, we meticulously guide you through each movement to ensure efficiency and safety. These stretches, although simple to learn, demand attention to detail to truly benefit the intricate muscles of the inner thigh. For those seeking a deeper stretch or those at more advanced levels, we delve into safe progression methods and alternative variations to suit individual needs.
Equip yourself with the foundational knowledge on the hip adductors and their importance, and learn to stretch them effectively for lasting hip and groin health.

Thank you so much for this. I’ve struggled to find a stretch that targets my tight gracilis and that standing leg-up stretch goes right to the sweet spot. I really appreciate the specificity of the form cues.

Adductor cause knee tightness? Because I feel my left knee uncomfortable kind of tightness it is not free like my right knee ?
Tightness in your left knee could indeed be linked to the adductors. They can affect knee alignment and cause discomfort. Stretching them might help alleviate the tightness. 🙌
It absolutely does. Struggled with this for years. Flat feet make it worse too. Keep stretching and look into custom shoe inserts (not dr. Scholls) and look at knees over toes guy for reverse sled pulls. Im like 80% of my highschool self because of that
When I do adduction movements, the point where my groin meets my thigh hurts. I try to stretch and see if that helps but it always hurts, and I am worried because it’s been this way for months. I can’t ride a bike either because of it. What can I do?
Persistent pain in the groin area can be tricky. Consider focusing on gentle, gradual stretching and strengthening exercises for your adductors. Avoid overstretching, and incorporate rest days. It might also be beneficial to consult a healthcare professional to rule out any serious issues. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
I am so bound up, my inner thigh is so tight, I can not sit on a 4 wheeler. I can not get my legs far enough apart to straddle the gas tank!!
If I put my leg up on that massage table, it would rip me in half.
OMG...I need to stretch. It has been over 30 years since I have stretched!! Very stupid on my part!!😂😂
