Frog Rock
- Begin kneeling on the floor with your hands down in front of you for support.
- Slide your knees straight out to the side, straddling your legs.
- Keep your knees bent to 90-degrees and straddle as wide as you can comfortably.
- Be sure you have a straight line from your right knee, through your hips, and over to your left knee.
- Remain supported by your hands and gently rock your hips forward, in front of your knees.
- Pause, return to the center, and then rock your hips backward, behind your knees.
- Be sure you rock the same distance forward and backward; do not rock two inches in front of your knees and only one inch behind.
- Repeat this rocking frog stretch for time.
