Hip Adduction

Trains core first — focused, direct, nothing hidden in the movement.

Muscle contribution per set

Core1

These are the weights Heatwayve's volume audit actually computes with — deliberately conservative, so compounds don't masquerade as full coverage. A 0.5 means a set counts as half a set for that muscle: meaningful help, not a replacement for direct work.

Machine or cable adduction with tempo; slow eccentric maximises adductor stretch and contraction.

Full ROM; avoid using body momentum.

Derived from tempo research on this movement class.

How Heatwayve progresses it

Progresses by load in +0.5kg steps. Isolation work is where the honest-volume ledger pays off — compounds alone don't cover it.

Knowing the numbers is one thing; hitting them for fifty weeks is another. Open Heatwayve — it prescribes the weight, holds you to the tempo, and runs this arithmetic on every set you log so the week actually adds up.
