Lizard-crawl step-under
BAS push (horizontal & lateral)
•
54s
THE WHAT:
A variation on the fundamental 'lizard-crawl' to widen the vocabulary & possibilities of close-floor, bent-arm strength (BAS) quadrupedal locomotion. Whilst the 'step-under' expresses greater transverse rotation of the body, most notably it serves to keep the HIPS as CLOSE to the floor as possible. Necessarily, the fundamental ‘Lizard crawl’ should be PROFICIENT before approaching practice of this variation.

'Archer' pushups
THE WHAT & HOW:
A dynamic, bodyweight pushing context incorporating alternating bent & straight-arm strength (BAS/SAS). Whilst it develops experience in deep elbow-flexion and horizontal straight-arm loading, it can also reveal weak links in elbow-integrity.Therefore, if any painful sensations,...

Close-floor locomotion exploration / ...
THE WHAT & HOW:
A most fundamental context for quadrupedal locomotion practice: moving through space whilst staying as close to the floor as possible. Whilst in this effort the exploration is predominantly bent-arm oriented (hence its perspective as a practice of 'BAS pushing'), this is not stric... -
'Iron-cross' pushups
THE WHAT:
A linearly-developmental, horizontal pushing frame in the sagittal plane for strength & stability development. It allows the practitioner to explore & develop the more "open" ranges (i.e. elbow-angle) of bent-arm strength and integrating with straight-arm strength (in entering the top, ...
