Description
Commercial Hip Abductor and Adductor Training in One Machine
The French Fitness Shasta Hip Abductor / Adductor Inner & Outer Thigh Machine is a commercial-grade selectorized machine designed to train both hip abduction (outer thigh and glute muscles) and hip adduction (inner thigh muscles) from one seated station. Found in commercial gyms, fitness centers, personal training studios, schools, and other professional training facilities, it provides an efficient way to strengthen the muscles that support lower-body stability, balance, and athletic performance.
Designed for daily commercial use, the Shasta combines smooth cable-driven resistance, comfortable seating, and simple adjustments to accommodate users of different experience levels. Whether it's used for hip activation before heavy leg training, accessory work after compound lifts, or focused lower-body strengthening, the dual-function design allows members to transition quickly between inner and outer thigh exercises without changing machines.
Built with an 11-gauge ASTM A36 steel frame, sealed-bearing pulleys, and a commercial selectorized weight stack, the French Fitness Shasta is engineered for long-term durability in high-traffic training environments.
NOTE: This is the same machine as the French Fitness Tahoe Hip Abduction / Adduction except silver in color, no other differences. If you want this machine, but in black, please click the above link.

Why Add an Inner Outer Thigh Machine to Your Gym Floor
An inner outer thigh machine is a practical way to add targeted hip training that members recognize and use consistently. It supports accessory work that complements compound lifts, and it is also commonly used as a warm-up station for hip activation before leg training.
Because it is selectorized, the setup stays simple and repeatable, which helps keep traffic moving in commercial environments and reduces the learning curve for newer gym members.
Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Inner Outer Thigh Machine
When selecting a hip abduction adduction machine for a facility, prioritize smooth movement, stable construction, and user fit. A good inner outer thigh machine should allow quick adjustments and comfortable positioning for a wide range of heights so it works well in shared gym settings.
If you serve stronger users or athletes, consider choosing a heavier weight stack at checkout, since upgrades must be selected at the time of purchase. Also plan layout clearance, because leg extension and user setup can require more live area than the footprint suggests.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most people who sit often, train legs regularly, or want better hip stability can benefit from this type of machine. It is also popular with athletes and active members who want to strengthen the muscles that support knee tracking and hip control during squats, lunges, and daily movement. Many users like it because it provides a simple way to add focused hip work without complicated setup.
2. How often do people usually use a hip abduction adduction machine in a weekly routine?In most routines, it is used 1 to 3 times per week as an accessory movement, usually after the main leg exercises. Some members use it lightly as part of a warm-up to activate the hips, while others use it at higher effort for targeted strength work. The best frequency depends on training goals, but most people get good results by keeping the volume consistent instead of doing it occasionally.
3. Is it normal to feel this more in the hips or glutes than in the thighs?Yes, that is common because hip abduction strongly involves the glute medius and other hip stabilizers, not just the outer thigh area. Many users feel it more in the side glutes, especially when focusing on controlled reps and a full range of motion. Adjusting posture and staying controlled usually improves the target muscle feel over time.
4. What should a gym owner pay attention to when placing this machine on the floor?The biggest day-to-day issue is user clearance, because leg length and movement style can extend beyond the footprint. It helps to leave open space on the sides so members can get in and out easily and so trainers can cue positioning. Keeping nearby attachments and wipes accessible also helps the station stay clean and high-traffic friendly.
5. Is this a good machine for members who are new to strength training?Yes, because it is seated, stable, and easy to understand, which reduces intimidation and setup errors. Many beginners like it because it allows them to train lower-body accessory muscles without needing free-weight technique. It also works well as a controlled, approachable option in hotel gyms and multi-use fitness rooms.
