The gluteus medius muscle is the primary muscle(major abductor) responsible for the hip abduction, with the Gluteus Minimus assisting. The synergist muscles are the psoas, piriformis, Tensor Fascia Latae (TFL), quadratus lumborum and rectus femoris.
The muscles acting in the hip abduction are:
1) Gluteus Medius
2) Gluteus Minimum
3) Tensor Fascia Latae (TFL)
4) Sartorius
Hip abduction is one of the movements of the hip joint.
From anatomical position with the knee forward, the whole leg is lifted literally away from the body. An increase in the range of movement is actually movement in the spine rather than in the hip joint.
Selected Exercises are : side-lying leg raises, walking and running.
