Rear Leg Foam Roll Tap to Lateral Squat

Align a foam roller about 6-10 inches directly behind your glutes. Then, perform the first part of the pitching sequence by performing a single leg squat. The glutes should contact the foam roller directly behind you. Keep your load in the rear hip and advance into a lateral squat as if striding down the mound. Make sure that you maintain the load in your rear leg all the way through this motion – do not let your knee “collapse” down the mound.
