Standing wall protocol
Front Facing
Feet approximately 1’ away from the wall with knees slightly bent, with feet planted hip width apart.
Entire low back/ lumbar is “flush” against the wall by maintaining a posterior pelvic tilt. This is largely the role of the transverse abdominis (TVA/ deep core).
Shoulder blades/ scapulae against the wall
Slight “chin tuck” with base of skull against the wall
You are in an active posture on the wall, legs engaged and pushing you into the wall. You are trying to “lengthen” your upper body as much as possible while retaining contact with the wall.
