Thanks for commenting. I reread the basic /earlier books from Tim Andersen and there he recommends cross crawling as one of the best resets. So I tried a few of them and I think these and head nods are best for substituting some kind of regular routine. Suitcase carries are (in my mind) some kind of weightened cross crawls. You could touch your free arm every step to the opposite knee, or march weightened in place, or (what I like for posture benefits) put the free hand in prisoner style behind your neck while lengthening your spine and march with complete body contraction (suck in your core a little and brace).I think both cross-crawling and marching fit in these thread as well.
During the past month I have discovered the benefits of cross-crawling. Been doing it multiple times a week in different positions and it feels great.
Yeah of course!Ok, this is a crawling thread, but is it also possible to post also Cross Crawling progressions and training around it?
I do carries after a swing or snatch session so my hands can recover every other day. I rarely do swings two days in a row.I have a question to you. How would you proceed If you did Suitcase carries every or every other day for 1x 10 minutes 1 or 2 times a day with a 20kg Kettlebell additional to a „regular training routine“ 2 to 3 times a week, switching hands every 30 seconds. Would you work up to switching every minute or keep the time and increase the weight to 30 kg?
I would be happy to get some input about this. Thank you.
I've never tried the weighted crawling but it sounds interesting, I might give it a go soon.My right wrist has been playing up again, so no kettlebells for a few weeks.
Back to squat jumps and crawling.
11x10 squat jumps OMEM.
Followed by leopard crawling forwards 6x1min with 1 min rest in between.
Question: Has anyone here tried loaded crawling? I saw a youtube of Tim crawling dragging chains for extra resistance. So yesterday dragged 20kg plate on grass lawn with webbing around my neck. It was hard, and this morning my upper thighs are suffering with muscle soreness!
