Wall Sit your way to Fitness
Exercise improves fitness, and can help you lose weight. In this regard, nothing beats the wall sit! The wall sit is an exercise that is commonly used to increase isometric endurance and strength. This exercise works your lower body including your quadriceps and glutes while simultaneously engaging your abs.
It may seem easy, but the first time you do it, it can be difficult. It is also gentle on the knees and back. Doing it regularly for 5 minutes can be very beneficial. Like planks and sit-ups, wall sits can turn your body in a fat burning furnace. Do you not believe us? You will notice the difference after you do the exercise.
Here is how you do a wall-sit:
- Lean against a wall that is flat with your back.
- Distance between your feet and wall: 2 feet.
- Slowly lower your body, using your walking as support. Engage your core and bring your feet forward.
- Make sure that your hips and legs are at 90-degree angles.
- Your legs should be parallel with the floor.
- Hold the position for at least 20 seconds, or as long you feel comfortable.
- Keep your hands neutral and maintain a normal breathing pattern.
- After finishing the rep, return to the original starting position.
As you become more familiar with the exercise, you can increase your time. Beginners need to start slowly and stop if they experience pain in the back, legs, or other parts of their body.
