Lateral Chain Stretch / Wall Side Stretch

This is an awesome way to stretch your sides while supporting your lower body on a wall.

Most training involves being relatively symmetrical, so stretching your sides and making sure there's not a big difference between is super important for performance, and for avoiding back or hip pain.

It helps loosen your QL & obliques and generally open you up - this is extremely effective fot lateral shifts, a hiked hip, even leg length discrepency!

This variation is especially nice if you have shoulder or upper body restrictions, allowing you to get a good side stretch without needing to hold on to a doorframe of rig (like we demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVmCGb_e9Co). You can hold the position, taking deep breaths and relaxing, or you can do reps, aiming to go a bit further each time.

Make sure to do some core activation drills afterwards to help the new position "stick"!

If you don’t know how to do that then I highly recommend The Simplistic Mobility Method! Get the most out of your mobility practice by opening then strengthening! Pick it up here: https://tommorrison.uk/the-simplistic-mobility-method
