Adductor Longus (Add Long R)
The M. Adductor Longus (Adductor Longus) is a muscle of the hip region. It is responsible for hip adduction, flexion and external rotation. This muscle is not covered by the official SENIAM catalogue — placement is based on established clinical literature. This page documents the exact electrode position, anatomical attachments and a standardized test movement based on Hermens et al. (2000).
