Bodyweight Spider exercise?

[Nicholas Marsala]

Has anyone here ever heard of an exercise called spiders? Not a spider crawl. A person recently recommend it to me but before they could demonstrate it to me they had to leave quickly. I'm curious to find out what this works and how to perform it? Anyone know where to look for it? I've tried googling but nothing so far. Thanks for your help

The only one I'm familiar with is the Spider Lift on page 147 of Beyond Stretching. It's basically a Zercher squat where the bar is lowered all the way to the floor if you're able.

I should have also added in that this is an exercise that Sonny Puzikas uses in his training methods.

Can you describe what this exercise is for? People might be able help if they know why this exercise was recommeed to you.
