Muscles worked

Technique

Setup

Stand with your back flat against a wall and walk your feet out. Slide down until your thighs are parallel, knees at 90°.

Movement

Hold the position, breathing steadily, thighs parallel to the floor and back flat against the wall.

Form Tip

Keep your weight through your heels and your knees over your ankles, not past your toes.

Increase Difficulty

Hold longer, hold a dumbbell on your thighs, or lift one foot slightly.

Decrease Difficulty

Slide less deep so your knees bend less than 90°.
