Forward Lean Glute-Focused Abduction

Sit on the front edge of the seat. Keep your feet and knees against the machine's pads.

Lean your torso forward from the hips at about a 45-degree angle, keeping your back straight. Hold onto the handles or frame at the front of the machine for stability.

Select a weight that will likely be lighter than your standard seated abduction.

Perform the abduction movement from this leaned-forward position, focusing the contraction on the upper and side areas of your glutes.

Slowly return to the starting position. Focus on maintaining your torso position and control throughout the entire movement.
