HOW TO DO WALL WALK:
Starting Position:
Lie face down on the floor with your body in a straight line from head to heels.
Place your hands on the ground, shoulder-width apart.
Walking Up the Wall:
Begin walking your feet up the wall while simultaneously walking your hands toward the wall.
Continue walking until you are in a handstand position with your feet resting against the wall.
Hold the Handstand:
Maintain a stable handstand position for a moment, engaging your core and keeping your body straight.
Focus on balance and control during this phase.
Descending:
Slowly lower yourself back to the starting position by walking your hands away from the wall and walking your feet down.
Keep your movements controlled to avoid sudden drops.
Repeat:
Perform the desired number of repetitions based on your fitness level and goals.
Gradually increase the challenge as you become more proficient.
Personal Trainer Tips:
Ensure your hands are shoulder-width apart, and your elbows are close to your sides to maintain proper alignment.
Avoid arching your back or letting your hips sag during the ascent and descent to prevent strain on your lower back.
Beginners should start with a few repetitions and gradually progress as strength and proficiency improve.
Warm-up before attempting wall walks to prepare your shoulders, core, and wrists for the exercise.
Incorporate stretches post-exercise to promote flexibility and reduce muscle tightness.
