Crab Walk Exercise is a little known exercise that uses body weight strength to improve coordination and whole body strength. The reason it is called Crab Walk is because you look sort of like a crab while performing it.
How to do a Crab Walk:
In order to do a Crab Walk correctly, sit on the ground with your legs extended out in front of you. Place your hands by your side with your fingers pointed toward your feet. Lift your body up into the air. Arch your back up as far as you can making sure your glutes are tight. Now in this position, begin to step forward one hand after the other. As you walk don’t let your butt slump down. When you get to the end of the room turn around and go the other direction.
