Wall Flexors Stretch
Palm flat on a wall with the fingers pointing down and the elbow straight, the underside of the forearm stretches; held for time.
How to do it
Setup
Side-on to a wall, arm straight, palm flat on it at chest height, fingers down.
Steps
- Keep the palm flat and the elbow straight.
- Lean gently into the hand until the forearm stretches.
- Hold and breathe, then switch arms.
Common mistakes
Heel of the hand lifting off the wall: press the whole palm flat. Elbow bending: straighten it so the stretch runs to the elbow. Leaning hard on a sore wrist: ease off to a mild pull.
Breathing
Slow and even through the hold.
