Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 тра 2022
- If I had time to do only one exercise in a day, I would do this exercise I call Lizzard walk. This will strengthen core, legs, shoulders, and mobilizes hips and spine. It basically addresses all key areas.

Anyone regardless of their age or physical conditions CAN improve! You just have to learn how to re-train your movement, and that is what I share on my channel. I teach Feldenkrais based movement and how to apply it to daily activities
Movement is vital to your health. Improving your movement therefore means improving your health and life. 3 key things are: 1) Daily movement practice to improve movement quality (MOVE WELL) 2) Incorporate good movement into daily activities (MOVE WELL AND MORE) 3) Awareness and mindfulness of your movement and lifestyle (MINDFUL MOVEMENT)

Being from Hawaii, I can attest the geckos in my house were always fit AF.
🦎 ❤️ 🦎
my lord taro, i cannot believe it.. every day you come out with an exercise that allows me to move my body the way i wish after years of an injury at a young age, very depressing. but then you come through and like my own angel help me re learn my body. forever thanks
I'm so glad to hear that! That's wonderful!
I can recognize me in what you said, we're not alone anymore :)
Thanks a lot
Same broheim
With you all there. All busted to F. I have enjoyed trying to do this. I end up laughing too. But only because I have ended up flat on the floor. Again. This is great and just what I need. Thank You
Feldenkrais isn't exercize
Getting on the floor right now! I’ll be back. 🙏🏾
wonderful-I did this moving forward and then also moving backwards-2 different experiences. I even stuck my tongue out like a lizard (no one else in room…) and that had an interesting effect on making me aware of tensions in neck and face
nice!
” Stick out tongue”. I agree imaginations help a lot.
Well the tong out IS a good Idea. Not si bizarre. Look at the lion's breath in yoga!
😬😁😁😁😁 i am going to follow your advice and stick
my tongue 👅 out to work my facial muscles. Not weird at all🤣🤣🤣
Watch out, not that your brain transforms to a lizard brain ;-)
I’m calling this “Spider-Man” move! 👍🏽
nice!
I started doing this like two months ago and I started seeing my body recomp get better and change. It really does work people.
Can you share how many times you did this a day? And also did you do any other workout?
What kinds of changes do you see in your body? and how many minutes do you do? thanks.
what is this exercise for? what does it give?
@@user-gl7hy5jc5l try it yourself, you gonna feel it
Saw this exercise actively taught by a 95 years old Taiwan master previously. Works wonders!
Man, I love this move! I was amazed at how much stronger and in control of my entire body I felt after doing this ONE time for less than 5 minutes! ALSO, could definitely feel it the next day!! Wow! At almost 50, I ❤️ this feeling!! Thank you, Taro!☯️☮️♌️
I tried it and it worked. Now I'm able to clim vertical walls as well. Thank you. On serious note - it makes sense.
Cracked me up!
🤭😂🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Great videos especially for an old retired construction guy. Thank you 🙏
The best thing I ever seen. Idid for 10 times and I feel like a lion. You are my favorite friend. Thenk you for ever.
I like the voice-over format.
Thank you for posting these movement videos for us!
Genius. Thanks for this.
Thank you Taro!
I do that at 2 am every time I want to get out of bed with my wife and sneak out to the bar with my friends.
Thanks for the belly laugh.!
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Lol 😂
🤣🤣🤣
😂
I don’t know why, I love him already!
Short and sweet. Love it
FINALLY!!! You are a Godsend.
I agree…it hits EVERYTHING! It’s also fun to do & FEELS GREAT…very energizing! 👍 👍 👍
I agree , so well explained and done! ALL in ONE saves time! And.NO.gym.costs best part!! Thank man!!
Thank you, Taro, for sharing this helpful exercise. I'm a Hatha Yoga teacher and this is an immensely helpful exercise.
We used to do this in Capoeira for warm ups. It truly is a great exercise 🙌🏼
Finely, I started doing it. After that swinging the legs in the air. Like babies and toddlers do. Great for relaxing and blood flow. Clapping with feet on the music. The floor is really a nice place to live.
Super...!
Recovered from my lower back pain issue.
Love this!!!! So simple but so comprehensive
I love this beautiful lizard walk. 🦎 My energy starts to flow when I move this way. I am excited to learn more. 🤗
Thank you so much for posting this video!
I really appreciate Mr taro this wonderful video that finally came my way, I am a martial artist of 20 years even if I am not in class I am in my home everywhere I go I try to practice however after years of injuries and extreme Athletics, you got to figure I ran my body like a race horse 🐎.
So much pain and so many ways I have learned to stretch before getting out of bed make sure my house is warm enough never stretch when it's cold
Very cool! Aligns perfectly with what i do daily already.
Witam. Jestem z Polski. Mam 60 lat i myślę, że to bardzo dobre ćwiczenia dla wszystkich, którzy siedzą bez ruchu większość dnia. Dziękuję i pozdrawiam.
Thanks for highlighting this exercise. I *love* lizard walk, and have been doing it for about 6 or 7 years. I feel similarly, that it would be my choice if I could only do one exercise/stretch.
I appreciate the way you've lowered your pelvis to the floor -- I start and end that way because of how deep the stretch can go in the core, waist, etc.
I especially love lizard-walking outside, moving forward and backward across a field or lawn. I also add push-ups to my lizard experience -- lowering the chest, as well, in other words. I sense that this asymmetrical push-up variation really works my core in a uniquely _transversal_ way. (Not sure if I'm using that adjective perfectly.)
I love It! Thank you!
Love it! Ao easy to hit all the bases! Thank you Taro!
welcome!
Felt so good. Luv it!
Looking forward to this one. Thank you.
my pleasure
Thanks for the great quick one to do👍🏻
Awesome! My back cracked in so many amazing places! And the hip flexor stretch! New favorite move THX!
Great stuff. Thanks for posting the video clip.
This is really amazing... Can't thank you enough for this... Trying your neck videos and waiting for the similar impact. Thank you again.
GREAT MOVES WITH SO MUCH BENEFIT. ❤
THANK YOU
Great! I love it. It works
Now this is something I’ve been going for. Thanks will give it a try.
I an so happy to see this today. I never saw your video, but I believe it's God's will for me to do this exercise. I will start doing after writing this. God bless you. I will now watch other videos.
Thanks, I'll try it!
Oh my gosh, this feels AMAZING! I went paddle boarding yesterday and my body is super tight. My left side has a nerve that is not happy. I feel it from the butt up the left side of my spine through the should blade into my neck, and behind my eye. It feels like someone is pulling on my eye making it twitch. I am a hot mess at the moment, hahaha. I really enjoy all of your teachings, thank you. Have a fabulous YOU in your day today. :)
Tremendous! Thank you !!
very cool and love the comments too. Thanks Taro.
Great ! Thank you.
Looooove this! I do it every day now. Amazing what this one thing does for my body.
Love it! Thanks for sharing this tip
Thank you and will try this
Definitely trying this one
Fantastic exercise, much appreciated.
Top tip, I had my back broken and it wasn't treated for almost 2 years. Now I've got 6 rods and 18 screws, I do very well. I'm finding the need to work more focused on recovering my core strength and opening the hips. 👍 Thanks very much, Roshi 61
Mark, can't imagine your daily discomfort. I ve only compressed mine carrying an insane load to avoid calling a taxi... Big mistake. There's no way I could even try this exercise just now. Give or take a week perhaps. Anyway, go careful. Best wishes!
Thank you so much.
Felt great! Thank you!
Oh gosh! Going to have to try this later. Already in clothes that one allowed this! Thanks so much again
Wow that looks like it feels wonderful!
Wonderful to feel that my entire body is engaged in movement.
bless you!
Thank you!!
my pleasure!
thx for your work taro
liked n subbed
I must try this !!!
Love it! Thank you 💕
Thank You!
Thank you!
I am going to try this. I have no doubt it will bring relief to my hips and lower back.
Thank you I am going to try this
Awesome thank you for sharing this
Thank you, these motivate my LIZARD brain when I hear that I only need to do this, it's easy, and after that I often find out I'm motivated to workout more
💯 As an INTJ, I prefer to be in my head, and the lizard crawl is SO fun that it motivates me to be more in my body-it singularly functions to increase my desire/ability for attending to self-care. 🦎 🥰
すばらしい！ ありがとうございます！ many thanks from Italy
welcome:)
This is insane! Aerobic as well!. A lot of fun and quickly found the motivation to spontaneously do it anytime!
Glad you enjoyed it!
So good!
Nice video, nice smile! I can see by your execution how all the muscle groups are essentially engaged. Best wishes.
What I think!
Really worth while!
Thanks for the video.
That is amazing!
LOVE THIS! first time am seeing yr videos
Fantastic movement. Thanks for sharing.
Looks like a great exercise. Thank you.
Love this thx ☺️
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦♀️I'm dead fur real I was doing this yesterday 💯 you will not believe ( even tho it was awkward for some bady parts aka old surgery qn my body ugh is weak in muscle amongst others ) BUT the relief it gave to my inner hip or thighs an my middle spine an the wings of my shoulders neck an pretty much every part of my body like it ! I felt like was a cat or a hippo form Madagascar 😂💯🤭 thx an ppl should try it no matter the age or level of skill of anything 😉
Cool. Thanks.
Short and sweet 👍
' .. I love'd it! 🥰🥰
Glad to hear it!
👍👍 ' .. maybe "clad to know it" not hear -- maybe even "glad to read it" - it's pedant.
' .. "Quality, it's a habit, not an act." - I don't remember the source. I always look for the better - not always. Haven't find any better, than your's, on your topic - I love the thinking - instractions - and .. I don't remember - I lost the thought.
Best!
Sincerely,
Olli
Super nice!!!!
