FST7-Tip: 70 seconden op Glute Abductors

Add some FST-7 glute abductors to get a nice, round butt! While women will find this exercise perfect as an addition to their leg and glute training, men should also implement it to create a complete physique. Nobody likes a flat butt! Do your FST-7 glute abductors!

Pro Creator and celebrity coach Hany Rambod demonstrates this popular glute abductor movement with Evogen Elite Athlete Lauren Findley. Abductor machines perfectly isolate the glutes. Due to differences in size and design of various types of abductor machines, you as an individual need to make adjustments to feel the resistance through the full range of motion (Range of Motion).

Bring your knees as close together as possible during the returning movement while fully maintaining tension on the glutes. This means you absolutely must not let the weight drop between repetitions. Preferably use the abductor as an FST-7 preload at the start of your glute training to activate the mind-muscle connection. If you want to shape your butt better or add some quality mass to your backside, don’t miss this video on FST-7 glute abductors!

FAQ

Why does Hany Rambod recommend doing the abductor as a 'preload' at the beginning of glute training?

By using the abductor as a preload at the beginning of your FST-7 training, you isolate and activate the glute muscles (especially the gluteus medius) directly. This strengthens the mind-muscle connection. As a result, during the heavy compound exercises that follow, such as squats or lunges, you will feel your glutes working much better and engage them more effectively.

Do men really need to use the abductor machine too?

Yes, absolutely. The abductor machine trains the outer glutes and hip stabilizers. Strengthening these muscles not only creates a complete and aesthetic physique but also improves the stability of the hips and knees. This directly translates to more strength and fewer injuries during heavy lifts like the squat and deadlift.

How do I prevent dropping the weight during the returning movement?

You prevent this by deliberately slowing down the eccentric (return) phase of the exercise. Bring the knees together in a controlled manner and stop just before the weight plates touch each other. This constant tension forces the glute muscles to work continuously throughout the entire set, which is essential for muscle growth.

Why does the abductor machine feel different in every gym?

Abductor machines vary by brand in terms of cable routing, seat angle, and cushion width. This changes the resistance curve. To maximize glute stimulation throughout the entire range of motion, it is important to manually adjust your seating position (for example, by leaning slightly forward) until you continuously feel the tension in the right spot.

H3: Which Evogen supplements are best for building round glutes?

For maximum muscle growth in the glutes, combine a powerful pump with optimal recovery. Take Evogen EVP AQ beforehand for extreme blood flow to the trained muscles. Drink Evogen Amino KEM during your workout to prevent muscle breakdown, and immediately after your workout, have a clean protein shake like Evogen IsoJect to kickstart muscle growth.
