How to do a frog pose

  1. Begin by kneeling on your mat and gradually lower down to your forearms
  2. Spread your knees wide apart while keeping your shins parallel to each other
  3. Rest your forearms on the ground and allow your hips to sink toward the floor
  4. Breathe deeply and hold the position, focusing on relaxing into the stretch
  5. Only go as deep as feels comfortable and avoid forcing the stretch
  6. Hold for 30 seconds to 2 minutes depending on your flexibility level

Form tips

  • Keep your knees and ankles aligned to protect your knee joints
  • Only sink as low as your body naturally allows without pain or discomfort
  • Focus on breathing deeply to help your muscles relax and deepen the stretch gradually
  • Place a pillow or bolster under your torso if you need additional support
  • Stop immediately if you feel any sharp pain in your knees, hips, or lower back
