An efficient lower-body workout that can be performed almost anywhere is the Wall Squat. Find out about the advantages of doing wall squats and how to do them right.
Benefits of doing wall squats
- Wall squats strengthen the core and lower body: Wall squats are a good way to strengthen your glutes, hamstrings, and quadriceps—especially your inner thighs—in a short amount of time. They strengthen your core by working your abdominal muscles as well as your legs.
- Wall squats aid in muscle endurance building: An isometric exercise, wall squats require the body to remain stationary throughout the workout. You’ll be able to hold the wall squat for longer periods of time if you practice it regularly, which will help you build muscle endurance.
- Wall squats are a quick and easy workout at home: Wall squats are one of the most convenient and efficient leg exercises. They are simple to incorporate into any workout routine and don’t require any equipment.
How to do wall squats with proper form
Start with two to three 30 to 60 second sets of wall squats. Choose a time that gives you enough time to keep up good technique throughout each set.
Step 1: Place your back against the wall and your feet about 6 to 9 inches away from the wall and your back against the wall.
Step 2: Squat down the wall so that your knees are about 90 degrees in front of you.
Step 3: Stand firm on this foothold for the assigned timeframe.
