BEAR CRAWL ISOMETRICS WITH BLOCK

Sets: 2

Reps: 10

  • On all fours, stack shoulders over wrists and hips over knees.

  • Place a yoga block between your knees.

  • Inhale to prep for the movement, allowing the ribcage to expand.

  • Exhale as you blow out through a straw. Draw in your pelvic floor and core as you squeeze the block with your inner thighs.

  • Keep exhaling and lift the knees 1-2 inches above the floor.

  • Inhale once you are lowered back down. Reset and repeat. The exhale will extend through the full rep.

  • A few form tips:

    • Create a stable base through your shoulders by pushing your shoulders away from the floor. You will feel the shoulder blades round (vs pull together). “Push the floor away”.

    • Your low back should be flat if not a little rounded. Avoid arching and dipping to the floor.

    • Make sure the abs are drawing inwards vs. pushing outwards.
