Wall Walk

FrançaisEspañol

Technique guide

Set-up

  • Lie face down with your feet against the bottom of a wall and your hands beside your chest.

How to do it

  1. Push up into a plank, then walk your feet up the wall as you walk your hands towards it.
  2. Stop when your chest is close to the wall, arms straight and body straight.
  3. Walk your hands back out and your feet back down, under control, to lie flat again.

Coaching cues

  • Keep your stomach braced so your back doesn’t arch.
  • Move one hand at a time with small steps.

Common mistakes

  • Walking the hands in so far that you lose balance.
  • Bending the arms near the wall.

Safety

  • Only go as close to the wall as you can control, stopping halfway while you build strength.
