How to do Wall Sit
- Stand with your back flat against a smooth wall and your feet about two feet out from the wall.
- Slide down the wall by bending the knees until your thighs are parallel to the floor.
- Set your feet roughly shoulder-width apart with your knees stacked over your ankles.
- Press your lower back firmly into the wall and rest your arms relaxed at your sides or out in front.
- Hold the position with steady breathing as the quads burn, keeping the knees in line with the toes.
- Stay in the hold for 30 to 60 seconds, then slowly slide back up the wall to stand.
