13 Lizard Crawl Variations to Unleash your Inner Reptile!
Guide to Lizard Variations
Lizard Crawls are way more fun than pushups!
They develop incredible total body strength and conditioning as well as timing, balance and mobility.
Pick a progression that's challenging but not impossible and aim to practice 3-5 sets of 6 crawl steps to develop your Lizard Crawl.
Look to progress by moving on to harder progressions over time.
In this video, I demonstrate the Lizard Progression Chain from easiest to hardest (in my opinion):
1. High Lizard
2. Reverse High Lizard
3. High Lizard Twist
4. Reverse High Lizard Twist
5. High Lizard Press
6. Reverse High Lizard Press
7. Low Lizard
8. Reverse Low Lizard
9. Low Inverted Lizard
10. Low Lizard Switch to Low Inverted Lizard
11. Stair Lizard Incline
12. Stair Lizard Decline
13. Reverse Stair Lizard Incline
Not everyone will agree with the above order of difficulty. Limb length, pre-existing strength in certain range along with general co-ordination can lead to varying opinions when it comes to figuring out which variations are harder than others.
Figuring this out for yourself is half the fun!
