The muscles of the adductor group are relatively unfamiliar to us, because within the scope of everyone’s understanding, it is estimated that everyone only knows the muscles on the abdominal muscles, chest muscles and arms. But if you have been exercising for a long time, you will want to exercise the muscles in your body to be healthier in the future, so after more in-depth research, you will want to understand the muscles of the adductor muscle group. So today we will lead you to learn about the muscles of the adductor muscle group! If you are interested, keep reading!
pectineus
One of the more important parts of the adductor muscle group is the phalangeal muscle. It is located on the inner thigh and is a superficial part of the upper part. The upper part of the medial lip of the thick line of the femur is its stop. Its function is to allow our hip joints to adduct, externally rotate, flex and extend when they are nearly fixed. Everyone knows that the hip joint is an important part of the body. If you want the hip joint to expand and contract freely and move more flexibly, you must protect your phalangeal muscles. When it is distally fixed, it can contract on both sides to tilt the pelvis forward, achieving good results.
Adductor longus and adductor brevis
The adductor longus and adductor brevis are both relatively important parts of the body. The adductor longus is on the inside of our pectineus muscle, and the adductor brevis is on the deep part of the pectineus and adductor longus muscles. The adductor longus starts from the outside of the superior pubic ramus, and the adductor brevis starts from the outside of the inferior pubic ramus. There are certain differences in their starting positions. The insertion points are also different. The adductor longus inserts in the middle of the inner lip of the thick line of the femur, while the adductor brevis inserts at the upper part of the thick line of the femur. As for the functions of these two muscles, they are actually not very different from the above. Basically, when they are near-fixed, they can make the hip jointAdduction, external rotation and flexion, and when distally fixed, can allow both sides to contract and tilt the pelvis forward.
Adductor magnus
The adductor magnus muscle is located deep inside our inner thigh. The starting point of the adductor magnus muscle is actually the ischial tubercle, ischial branch and lower branch of the pubic bone, and it ends at the upper two-thirds of the medial lip of the thick line of the femur and the femur. Medial epicondyle. It may sound complicated to everyone, but in fact, it is not much different from the above. They all have starting and ending points. The function of the adductor magnus is not much different from the above, but when it is distally fixed, it allows the two sides to contract and tilt the pelvis backward instead of tilting the pelvis forward. However, when it is near-fixed, the effect is the same as the above two, which is to adduct, extend and externally rotate the hip joint.
Although you may not hear much about the adductor muscles, they are located on the inner thighs and are also very important. They can affect our upright walking and movement, so everyone should understand them clearly before exercising!
