The lizard crawl is included in the BASIC EXERCISES because it is, for a beginner, a reasonably challenging exercise. It is a very good exercise for developing wrist strength, and has other applications as well. Another good exercise for the wrists is Knuckle PUSHUPS.
There are detailed instructions on how to execute the Lizard Crawl below.

USES OF THE LIZARD CRAWL
The Lizard Crawl is an excellent upper body strength maneuver. It is also a good exercise to help make the wrists immune to wrist locks.
HOW TO DO THE LIZARD CRAWL
Look at the video to learn the exercise, and consult the text below to add to your knowledge.
Lie on the ground, with your arms bent and the weight of the body resting on the palms of the hands and one the toes.
Using mainly your wrists and toes, 'leap' forward as shown in the video. This is an excellent exercise for wrist strength.
You should do the Lizard Crawl for a distance of at least thirty feet or nine meters, first forward and then backwards.

And now, please read and meditate upon...
The student's limbs were in great pain - this was not a result of injury, but a result of the previous day's training.
So it had been for more than a year.
Training would last for hours, and then the next day would be spent in great pain, as his limbs struggled to recover and to grow. And so it was for years to come, until one day, the student awoke, and the pain did not affect him. Yes, it was there, but so much a part of him that it did not trouble him, was not even unpleasant.
And he found that the years of pain had brought him strange gifts - if he was injured, his body healed much faster than that of an ordinary man. And he did not age as other men did. The friends of his youth were all old men, soft and fat - not he. He had the body and look of youth, for the years of pain had made him, in a small way, an immortal.
