How to Perform a Wall Sit

Start by leaning against a wall and slide down so that your knees are bent at about a 90 degree angle (not deeper). Make sure your knees are aligned over your ankles, and toes are pointing forward.

Press your hips, back, shoulders and head against the wall.

Keep most of your weight in your heels, not your toes.

Breathe.

Hands can be relaxed down your sides as are your shoulders – relaxed, not shrugged.

For an extra challenge, raise your arms out straight in front of you, keeping your shoulders relaxed down your back.

Hold.
