Wall Climbers
Starting Posture
Begin in a high plank position with your hands shoulder-width apart and directly underneath your shoulders. Keep your body in a straight line from head to heels.
How to Exercise
Start by bringing your right knee towards your right elbow, then quickly switch and bring your left knee towards your left elbow. Continue alternating legs in a climbing motion.
Breath Control
Exhale as you bring your knee towards your elbow and inhale as you return to the starting plank position.
Common errors
A common error is lifting your hips too high, which reduces the effectiveness of the exercise. Another mistake is rushing through the movement without proper form.
