In this video, we'll show you how to do the frog stretch, a yoga asana that is great for stretching the hip and thigh muscles, specifically the hip flexors and the quadriceps. This stretch is also great for relieving tension in the lower back and improving mobility in the hips. It's considered a more advanced version of the half frog stretch.

To begin, start on all fours, with your hands and knees on the ground. Bring your knees together and then slowly separate them as wide as you comfortably can, keeping your feet together. Lower your hips down towards the ground and rest your chest and head on the floor between your legs.

Make sure to keep your hips level and square to the ground and try to press your hips as close to the floor as you can. This can be very intense and deep stretch so be careful with your breath, try to breathe deeply and release your breath.

Hold the stretch for 30 seconds to a minute, or as long as you can comfortably hold it. Then release the stretch.

It's important to note that this is an advanced pose and it requires a lot of flexibility in your hips, if you are not ready for the full version, you can try the half frog stretch and build your way up.

You can also modify this stretch by placing a cushion or a blanket under your hips for support, or using a towel or a strap to help you keep your legs wide apart.

Remember to breathe deeply throughout the stretch, and to never force your body into a position that causes pain. With regular practice, you'll notice an improvement in your hip flexibility and reduced tightness in the hips and thigh muscles.
