Wall Sit

Whenever my high school gymnastics coach would assign wall sits, the whole team would have the same reaction: pure panic (probably because we did them for five minutes straight).

  • Stand with your back against a wall, placing your feet about two feet in front of you. Feet should be hip-distance apart.
  • Bending your knees, slide your back down the wall until your knees are at 90-degree angles. Your knee joints should be over your ankle joints, so you may need to inch your feet farther from the wall to create proper alignment. Don't let your knees fall into the midline of your body or sway outward.
  • Hold.
