Bear Crawl

On hands and toes with the knees just off the floor, crawl forward moving opposite hand and foot.

How to do it

Setup

On hands and toes, knees an inch off the floor, back flat like a table.

Steps

  1. Crawl forward moving the OPPOSITE hand and foot together.
  2. Keep the knees low and the hips level.
  3. Crawl back the same way without turning.

Common mistakes

Hips piking up: the table stays flat; a cup could rest on your back. Knees dragging: an inch of air, always. Racing: slow crawls load the trunk; fast ones just look busy.

Breathing

Steady with the steps.
