Warm-Up: Awakening Your Body (5 Minutes)

- Breathing: Inhale through your nose during the backward swing, exhale through your mouth during the forward swing. Maintain a steady rhythm of breath to synchronize with the movement.
Leg Swings (2 Minutes)
- Execution: Step away from the wall, finding your balance on one leg while gently swinging the other leg forward and backward. Keep your standing knee slightly bent and engage your core for stability. Gradually increase the range of motion with each swing.
- Breathing: Inhale as you swing your leg forward, exhale as you swing backward. Focus on maintaining controlled, steady breaths throughout the movement.
Wall Angels (1 Minute)
- Execution: Stand with your back against the wall, feet hip-width apart, and arms extended out to the sides at shoulder height. Slowly slide your arms up and down the wall in a controlled motion, maintaining contact with the wall at all times.
- Breathing: Inhale deeply as you slide your arms up, exhale fully as you slide them down. Focus on elongating your spine and opening up your chest with each movement.
Main Session: Core Engagement and Stability (25 Minutes)
Wall Plank (3 Sets, 30-60 Seconds Each)
- Execution: Face away from the wall, place your hands shoulder-width apart on the floor, and walk your feet up the wall until your body forms a straight line. Engage your core, glutes, and leg muscles to maintain stability. Hold the position for 30 to 60 seconds.
- Breathing: Inhale deeply through your nose, exhale fully through your mouth. Focus on maintaining a steady breath to support your stability and endurance.
Wall Sit (3 Sets, 30-60 Seconds Each)
- Execution: Lean your back against the wall, slide down until your thighs are parallel to the ground, and your knees are at a 90-degree angle. Engage your core, quads, and glutes to hold the position. Hold for 30 to 60 seconds before releasing.
- Breathing: Inhale deeply to prepare, exhale as you sink into the wall sit. Maintain a consistent breath pattern to support your muscles and enhance endurance.
Wall Push-Ups (3 Sets, 8-12 Reps Each)
- Execution: Stand facing the wall, place your hands shoulder-width apart, and extend your arms at shoulder height. Lower your chest toward the wall by bending your elbows, then push back up to the starting position. Repeat for 8 to 12 reps.
- Breathing: Inhale as you lower your chest toward the wall, exhale as you push back up. Focus on synchronizing your breath with the movement to optimize control and strength.
Cooldown: Embracing Stillness (5 Minutes)
Wall Hamstring Stretch (2 Minutes Each Leg)
- Execution: Face the wall, extend one leg forward, and lean your hips back, keeping both feet flat on the ground. Feel the stretch in the back of your extended leg and hold for 30 seconds. Switch sides and repeat.
- Breathing: Inhale deeply to prepare for the stretch, exhale as you lean into the stretch. Focus on releasing tension with each exhalation.
Chest Opener (2 Minutes)
- Execution: Stand facing away from the wall, interlace your fingers behind your back, and gently straighten your arms as you lift your chest toward the ceiling. Hold the stretch for 30 seconds, focusing on opening up your chest and shoulders.
