What is the typical range for adduction at the hip joint?

The typical range for hip adduction is generally understood to be between 20 to 30 degrees. This movement occurs when the leg moves towards the midline of the body from an abducted position. Understanding this range is important for assessing joint function and movement patterns regularly evaluated in physical therapy, rehabilitation, and athletic training.

The other ranges presented do not align with the commonly recognized measurements for hip adduction in the anatomical literature. While certain individuals may achieve more than 30 degrees due to flexibility and anatomical variations, the standard range is indeed closer to the lower end, reflecting typical anatomical limits and biomechanical considerations.
