Wall workout

Have you ever wondered that you could do with the wall instead of ramming your head hard against it at times of frustration? :-P



Well, you could us it to workout!

Below are some suggestions for wall workout....*LOL* working out with the wall, if you like! *ROFL*

Wall Planks- Squat on the floor and face away from the wall. Place your hands (at shoulder width) on the floor and start walking your legs backwards up the wall. Your legs should be raised higher than a normal plank (legs higher than head). Hold for as long as you can.

Feet on Wall Push-Ups- Squat on the floor and face away from the wall. Place your hands (slightly wider than shoulder width) on the floor and start walking your legs backwards up the wall. Your legs should be raised higher than your head. While keeping your feet comfortably and firmly pressed against the wall, start doing the push-ups. Do until failure.

Wall Sits- Place your back squarely against the wall with your knees bent and walk your feet outwards to form a 90 degree angle. Hold for as long as you can.

Handstands- Squat on the floor facing the wall. Place your hands flat on the floor and with your fingers pointing towards the wall (at shoulder width). Straighten your arms and move your shoulders over your wrists and then in a swift movement kick your feet up on the wall. Extend your body straight up and tuck your stomach in. Hold for as long as you can.

Handstand Push-Ups- Similar to doing the handstands but you lower your body until your head touches the floor. Then, push your body back up. Do until failure.

Depending on your fitness level and condition, do 3-5 sets.
