Tips for Performing Crunchy Frog on Floor

• **Controlled Movements**: Avoid rushing through the movements. It's not about how many you can do, but how well you can do them. Make sure each movement is controlled and deliberate. When you crunch up, pause for a moment before slowly lowering back down. This will work your muscles more effectively and reduce the risk of injury.
• **Breathing**: Proper breathing is crucial for this exercise. Inhale when you are in the starting position and exhale as you crunch up. This will help you engage your core more effectively and prevent you from getting light-headed
