Froggy Series (adductor stretches + engagements)

I recommend warming up with Leg Lifts + Holds, Basic Butterflies, and Pancake + Pelvis Articulation if froggy stretch is a new stretch for you.

Froggy is an “intense” stretch that requires a sense of inner trust in your hips. There are many holds in this exercise, so I recommend taking breaks when needed but breathing through tough times.

The PNF exercises in this series are valuable for “squeezing” engagements for your inner thighs (think pole sits, laybacks).

The stretch offers inner thigh (adductor) isolation for flexibility without putting strain on the knee joint or holding a middle split.

Wear knee pads or add cushion under the knees if there’s discomfort.

Tools: 2 blocks

Jump to 2:00 if returning to exercise

I recommend having a mirror or some visual point of reference to ensure proper alignment. Without it, you’re missing the stretch.
