Technique

How to perform Wall Handstand Plank

1. Begin in a push-up position with your feet at the base of a wall and your hands far enough away to leave room for an inclined bodyline.
2. Step one foot and then the other up the wall, keeping both arms straight.
3. Adjust the foot height until your arms, trunk and legs form an approximately straight diagonal line around 45 degrees to the floor.
4. Push through your hands and maintain active shoulder support instead of pulling your shoulder blades down and back.
5. Keep your ribs and pelvis aligned without sagging or folding at the hips, and breathe through the hold.
6. Step one foot and then the other back down to finish.
