Locomotion and "animal" movements have gotten very popular recently, but they're not just some fad. The benefits include spinal stability, shoulder strength and mobility, and a whole lot more. In this latest article we look at how the Monkey and Frogger help with handstands and other hand balancing skills.

Monkey and Frogger. DO NOT underestimate these movements! They are the foundation for more advanced skill based movements. Having trouble with your handstand? Try these for a week and see the difference they can make! Don't for get to include the Bear Crawls! Thank you GMB for sharing!
This is a good source of inspiration for me to take these animal movements more seriously for my handstands and also my hip mobility. I would never have come up with some of the variations that were used in the video on my own. The people in the video made it look productive and fun. I'm going to check out the animal movement articles on GMB and try to incorporate them into my training. I might have to drop a few other things while I focus on this, but that's better than overloading myself. I'm not quite comfortable yet walking up the wall for handstand practice and kicking towards the wall feels like a kamikaze mission towards the floor. (Which sounds horrible, but on the bright side, I can't miss!) Maybe these motions are the pre-wall-handstand techniques I need to focus on to bridge the gap from the crow to the wall.
They totally are :)
Love this. Super great ideas for not only building mobility for handstands but simply warming up for any upper body work!
I love these locomotion exercises. Helped me a ton in loosening up my hips/ankles and also made my handstand more stable. Thanks a lot GMB :)!
I had the kids at my judo club do these and I noticed an immediate improvement in the cartwheels. They're now a regular part of the warm up.
It is so great that you can incorporate this into the warm up Dermanus. It really can make a huge difference and I am sure the kids love it!
I see what you did there. I will try it!
Ido portal bro
some good stuff
+Ja kub Yup, he's got some good locomotion movements to try too
Watching this actually helped me with my own Elements work yesterday. Thanks for posting.
+randy hares Thanks for your work with elements! Please keep us posted on how the program is working for you!
DVery helpful video! Good stuff!
Enjoying these new movements more all the time
name of music please? GREAT JOB GMB!!!
+Gloria Gandia Thanks! The music is from a stock pile that I believe youtube carries. We dealt in the past with music copy right issues so it is the easiest way to avoid it. Not sure what the name of the music is.
This is such a great video. Shows exactly what I'm working towards.
How is it going for you Harold? Have you seen an improvement in your handstands?
+GMB Fitness right now I'm putting time into the crow pose, and the monkey and frogger definitely help it. Thanks for asking!
