Crab Toe Touch

A bodyweight core exercise performed from the crab position, alternating opposite hand to opposite foot touches to improve core strength, shoulder stability, and coordination.

💡 Instructions:

• Sit on the floor with knees bent, feet flat, hands behind you (fingers pointing toward feet).

• Lift hips into a reverse tabletop position, shoulders stacked over wrists.

• Raise your right leg while reaching your left hand toward your right toes.

• Return to the starting position while keeping hips lifted.

• Repeat on the opposite side and continue alternating.

⚠️ Common mistakes:

• Letting the hips drop.

• Shrugging shoulders or locking elbows without control.

• Swinging the leg instead of lifting it in a controlled manner.

• Placing hands in a way that overloads the wrists.

• Overextending the neck.

• Losing coordination by going too fast.
