Adductor Muscles

Adductor muscles refer to a group of muscles of the hip. The Adductors are a group of muscles that include:

The sartorius muscle is sometimes included as an adductor but it acts internally to rotate the femur.

All Adductor muscles originate on the pelvic bone and attach at intervals along the length of the femur. This interval attachment provides the most power and stability for the hip joint and the femur.

The Adductors are also a very important part in the stabilization of the hip joint.
