Wall slide with a hold

• Duration: 6 min
• Level: Beginner
• Goal track: Weight loss

Stand with your back, head and hips against a wall, feet a small step away, and press both arms against the wall in a goalpost shape, elbows bent at shoulder height. Keeping your lower back and the backs of your hands touching the wall, slowly slide your arms upward until they are as straight as feels comfortable, then pause and hold that raised position for 3 seconds before sliding them back down to the start. Move slowly and stop short of any pinching feeling in your shoulders. Do 2 sets of 6 repetitions.
