wall stretch
Push against vertical surface
A wall stretch is any stretching exercise that uses a wall for support or resistance.
The wall provides stability for balance-dependent stretches or creates leverage for deeper stretches: I do a wall stretch for my calves every morning.
Common variations target the chest, shoulders, hamstrings, or hip flexors.
