Adductor strain injury prevention program.

Warm-up	Bike
	Adductor stretching
	Sumo squats
	Side lunges
	Kneeling pelvic tilts
Strengthening program	Ball squeezes (legs bent to legs straight)
	Different ball sizes
	Concentric adduction with weight against gravity
	Adduction in standing on cable column or elastic resistance
	Seated adduction machine
	Standing with involved foot on sliding board moving in sagittal plane
	Bilateral adduction on sliding board moving in frontal plane (ie, simultaneous bilateral adduction)
	Unilateral lunges with reciprocal arm movements
Sports-specific training	On ice kneeling adductor pull togethers
	Standing resisted stride lengths on cable column to simulate skating
	Slide skating
	Cable column crossover pulls
Clinical goal	Adduction strength at least 80% of the abduction strength
