Copenhagen Adduction: Preventing Groin Injuries in Football
A study highlighted in the British Journal of Sports Medicine demonstrated that the Copenhagen Adduction exercise significantly reduced groin injuries in male football players. The research found a 41% decrease in these common athletic injuries through the implementation of this straightforward strengthening routine. The exercise targets the adductor longus muscle, which is crucial as weaker groin muscles correlate with a higher risk of injury. Participants progressed through three resistance levels based on their pain tolerance, ensuring accessibility. Due to its brevity, the Copenhagen Adduction exercise had high compliance among the athletes. This finding suggests that incorporating this exercise into training regimens could be a valuable preventative measure against groin injuries, similar to the Nordic Hamstring Curl for hamstring strains.
