How to Move on All Fours: Basic Crawling Fundamentals

This video blogpost is here: http://JohnSifferman.com/blog/how-to-move-on-all-fours

Moving on all fours should come naturally to humans. Personal trainers and strength coaches tend to label it as an animal exercise or animal movement, when in reality, it's just natural human movement. Humans learn to crawl even before they learn to walk, and children are adept at moving on all fours in a variety of ways. We tend to lose this natural ability as we grow older and don't practice or play on all fours anymore. The truth is that moving on all fours is our birthright, and we are completely entitled to being able to master this physical skill even throughout adulthood. This tutorial will teach you how to start.

if all the world walked on all fours, ceilings would be much lower, and buildings would have more floors.
