What is a covalent compound made of many small repeating units linked together in a chain? A polymer would fit that description. Also, a protein which is made of many amino acids hooded together by a peptide bond, which is a covalent bond.
Hip abductors are muscles on the other side of the leg and they do the opposite motion, by bringing the leg away from the middle of the body. It would look funny if humans stood around adducting and abducting their leg, but itâs more complex than thatâ¦.
But the smaller gluteus medius and minimus muscles are what we'll need to focus on to try and increase hip width. These two muscles are what's known as abductors. Abduction is the biomechanical term for moving a limb AWAY from the midline of the body. In this case, it's moving the thigh away from the center of the body.
