Standing Wall Slide Half Squat Hold
The wall slide stopped halfway down and held: a gentler wall sit, the knees bent about halfway instead of to 90°.
How to do it
Setup
Back against a wall, feet a step out, slid down until the knees bend about halfway.
Steps
- Hold the half squat, back flat on the wall.
- Keep the weight spread over the whole foot.
- Hold and breathe; time it.
Common mistakes
Creeping lower as the thighs burn: this is the half version; stay put. Hands pushing on the thighs: take the arms off the legs. Holding the breath: breathe steadily through the hold.
Breathing
Steady throughout; never held.
