Exercising the Inner Thighs
and Holding the Position
This exercise targets the adductor
muscles of the inner thighs. Start in
the “Starting Position” as previously
described. Bend your knees slightly and
keep the knees bent during the entire
exercise. Slowly glide outwards with the
legs until they are almost at the track
stoppers. See  g. 15. With gentle and
controlled movements, move your legs
together until the foot plates are almost
touching the inner stopper on the tracks.
Hold and push with the muscles of the
inner thighs for 1 to 2 seconds. See
 g. 16. Then glide outwards again with
your legs into a wide position. Repeat
this exercise for 60 seconds and pause
between the repetitions if necessary.
Maintain good posture and prevent the
foot plates from colliding with the inner
and outer stoppers.

the abdomen and lower back. Start in a
sitting position on the  oor in front of
your LEG MAGIC™ personal trainer.

heels on the  oor. Keeping your back
straight, lean back approx. 45°. With
your arms reach forward in order to
balance out the V-sitting position with the

lift one foot slightly above the  oor.

while simultaneously lifting the other foot
off the  oor. See  g. 18. Repeat these
