Thanks for replying to my email. Just to let you know I am a pediatric PT. I work in a school and haven't done a lot with FES. Plus our guys are little therefore muscle's are little. I definitely agree with you, and have only found it effective for small muscle groups. The reason I am interested in hip abduction is I feel like my muscle group needs to learn to refire. My hip abduction is a 2 / 3-. I would say most of my hip musculature is 3-, same ith knee as I can't go through full range. Docs say I have good strength 4/5. I laugh at this as it show difference btwn the two : ) Anyways exercises I'm doing are clam shells, abduction slides prone and supine. When I'm at the gym, I try to do the weight machines hip abd / add, knee flex / ext., knee press etc. My intent is to try it with prone abduction slides. I would eventually like to use it with side lying abd. Let me know if you can think of other things I should try Thanks GretchenView Thread
