3. Begin the exercise by pressing your hands into the wall and slowly 'crawling' them down the wall while maintaining tension in the band.
4. Keep your abdomen tight for stability, and ensure your back remains flat against the wall throughout the movement.
5. Crawl your hands down to about head height or as far as you can maintain proper form and control.
6. Slowly reverse the movement, 'crawling' back up the wall until your arms are once again fully extended overhead.
7. Continue for the desired number of repetitions before relaxing or switching to another exercise.
8. Rest briefly and perform additional sets as required.
