Wall Head Plank Instructions

  1. Stand facing a wall with your feet shoulder-width apart.
  2. Place your hands on the wall at shoulder height, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
  3. Step back until your body is at a 45-degree angle to the wall, keeping your core engaged.
  4. Lower your body towards the wall by bending your elbows, keeping them close to your body.
  5. Push yourself back up to the starting position by straightening your arms, focusing on using your chest and triceps muscles.

Wall Head Plank Tips

  1. Position yourself facing the wall, with your feet hip-width apart and your hands on the ground.
  2. Engage your core and keep your body in a straight line from your head to your heels.
  3. Place the top of your head against the wall, ensuring your neck is in a neutral position.
  4. Keep your gaze slightly forward to maintain proper alignment and prevent straining your neck.
  5. Breathe deeply and hold the plank position for as long as you can, aiming for gradual improvement.
  6. Remember to relax your shoulders and avoid hunching or tensing up your neck muscles.
  7. As you progress, challenge yourself by lifting one leg or arm off the ground while maintaining stability.
