Bear Crawl

How to do it

  1. Start on hands and knees, hands under shoulders, knees under hips.
  2. Lift your knees a few centimeters off the floor so your weight rests on your hands and toes, keeping your back flat and core braced.
  3. Move forward by advancing your right hand and left foot together, then your left hand and right foot.
  4. Keep your knees low to the ground and your hips level, without letting them rock side to side.
  5. Continue crawling for the given distance or number of steps.
