Sprinting Like A Bear

Let me ask you a simple question....Would you rather do Sprints on two legs or do Quadrupedal Sprints?

Most who have trained in Football, Wrestling, Martial Arts or just playing outside would tell you running on two legs is easier to do. Using all 4 of your limbs is (literally) a different a kind of workout animal. Just to keep balance, you have to move enough to where your arms and legs are in sync with each other and unlike 2-legged Sprints, you won't get as far. On flat ground, you'd be lucky to get 20 yards in a matter of 10 seconds (I'm guessing) as opposed to let's say 100 in just over 10 seconds. 

Sprints in the Bear Crawl is a different level of conditioning and if you do them consistently, you'd be pretty damn rugged and a fat burning machine, not to mention having lungs that will make people's jaws drop. They're hard but they're so damn simple it's not even funny. Many can't grasp the concept of being able to move fast and coordinated in that position. Just try to do 10 seconds of a Bear Crawl Sprint and if you're not breathing hard afterwards, you're not human.

When I need a quick workout and can do it in my living space, I would do up to 20 Sprints in a length of 15 ft each (equivalent to 5 yards). Sprint up, walk/jog back and repeat. Sometimes just doing that is more than enough for a training day and you're getting a good sweat going and breathing like you're going to die.

It can also be done as a finisher to a workout to get that extra calorie burn and build muscle from multiple angles in one shot. I ask myself from time to time how many sprints can I do before I say I'm done, one of these days I'll give it a shot. Timed my workout yesterday doing 20 5 yard Sprints in 4:16, I don't know what the average time is for that workout or if anyone really times but at least it's under 5 minutes and it's a killer. 

Whether you're a weightlifter, crossfit maniac, bodyweight enthusiast or just want to test your fitness, Bear Crawl Sprints are a great workout and will knock down even the strongest of men and women. Get strong, get fit and kick ass in your training everyday whether it's a small one or a big one, get it done.
