Wall Stretches
Added 2021-10-14 00:52:13 +0000 UTCThis is a follow along video where I'll be holding the poses for 2 minutes. Feel free to stay in the pose as long as you can, even if it isn't the full 2 minutes! Work your way towards longer/passive holds. Heres a description of each pose:
1. legs up the wall
Scooch your booty against the wall, then slide your legs up. Press the heels into the wall. Point and flex the toes or just relax the feet and breathe!
2. Wall pigeon
Place foot right above the knee. Slide the heel of the extended leg down the wall. The lower you slide your heel, the more intense of a stretch you'll get. Don't forget to do both sides!
3. Butterfly
Bring the soles of the feet together and use your hands to gently press your knees towards the wall. Keep your core engaged and press your lower back into the floor.
4. Gravity Straddle
Start with both legs up the wall. Slide your heels down as far as you can, relax and don't forget how important it is to regulate the breath!
5. Wall frog
Press feet against the wall. Make sure you're not shifting too far forward. Stay on palms or forearms. To make the stretch more intense, push your booty towards the wall or isolate the cheeks!
