RitFit has introduced the Panther Home Hip Abductor and Adductor Machine, a [dedicated piece of strength equipment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skelcore-20) designed to target the inner and outer thigh muscles, which are often neglected in conventional [home gym setups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-gym-equipment-1), and it is now available in both black and pink finishes.

This machine features a dual-function design that allows users to perform both adduction and abduction movements from a single seated position, with a 96-degree adduction arc and a 70-degree abduction arc per side to facilitate a full range of motion. This is complemented by 360-degree rotating knee pads that reduce joint friction and an [integrated 19-plate weight stack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3section-adjustable-weight-bench) offering 209 pounds of resistance, adjustable via a single pin and augmented by a 1:2 pulley ratio that effectively doubles the load on the working muscles.
