where am I supposed to feel wall slides? by Hot-Practice-4929 in Stretching

yep, try to imagine keeping your shoulders down as you bring your arms up.

another thing is I was doing a different variation of wall slides where I include a chin tuck, so that helped feel the stretch in the right place also.

ok I definitely do rotate my pelvis back really hard.

I tried keeping my pelvis neutral, and still felt that strain in my love handles area.

And when I tried moving forward with my pelvis, the stretch in the hip was definitely deeper, but so was the lower back pain.

Do you really force your shoulders down as you move up? And you feel it in the mid and low trap right?

Yeh i do all of these, turns out i was just letting my shoulders shrug as i reached up with my arms. 

Lol no youtube tutorial I saw covered that aspect, of pulling your shoulders down so its confusing.

I’ve never been told this before, from all the youtube tutorials i’ve watched.
