  Rocking Half Frog Stretch

  A dynamic hip-mobility exercise with one bent leg opened to the side and the other directed rearward. Small pelvic rocks are performed close to the floor on the forearms and elbows, with the hands also contacting the floor, to explore an adductor-biased stretch.

Unlike a static stretch, you don't hold the end position here — you move in and out of it. Slot a few into your warm-up, a handful of slow reps per side, and stop short of pain. For longer holds aimed at flexibility and recovery, the Mobility exercises hub is the better fit.
