FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About the Standing Hip Abductor
What does this machine do?
Short answer:
It targets the upper and side glutes while improving hip stability and mobility.
Long answer:
The Booty Builder Standing Hip Abductor strengthens the gluteus medius and gluteus minimus, which are crucial for hip alignment, athletic movement, and overall lower-body stability. Because you’re standing, you also activate the core, adductors, and stabilizers around the hips. This makes it both a strength and mobility tool in one.
