Instructions
1. Begin by sitting on the floor with your legs extended in front of you.
2. Place a foam roller under one side of your glutes.
3. Bend the knee on the side where you have the foam roller for added pressure, and cross that foot over your opposite knee.
4. Lean slightly into the glute muscle that is on the roller and use your hands for support behind you.
5. Slowly roll back and forth over the foam roller, applying pressure to the glute muscles.
6. Roll for 30 seconds to 1 minute, finding and focusing on tight or sore spots within the muscle.
7. Switch sides and repeat the rolling on the other glute.
It's important to maintain control during the exercise and to adjust the amount of body weight you're using for pressure based on your comfort and the intensity of the muscle release you want to achieve.
