The Moving Claw Series primarily works the hamstrings, with the calves and quadriceps supporting the movement. It is a plyometrics movement that needs no equipment.

Movement instructions
This move helps prepare your running form to help you excel at sprinting. As you run, be sure to flex the knee, aiming to kick your glutes as the hip extends.
Reload the quad as the leg moves back forward, attacking the ground on the next step.
Ensure that as you run, you block with the arms, punching through in a rapid 1-2 motion.

Your progress
Keep the same exercise variation, range of motion and recording method when comparing Moving Claw Series sessions.
Repetitions and completed sets.
Example: 10, 9 and 8 completed reps. Keep each set separate instead of recording only the total.
Compare repetitions using the same variation and range. A different variation needs its own history; extra reps are not directly comparable if the movement changes.
