Wall Wall Squat Overview

The wall squat workout primarily engages the Quads by using the wall as support.

The wall provides stability and helps maintain proper form, while also activating secondary muscles.

Wall Wall Squat Instructions

  1. Stand with your back against a wall, feet shoulder-width apart, and toes pointing slightly outward.
  2. Slowly slide your back down the wall, bending your knees and lowering your body into a squat position.
  3. Stop when your thighs are parallel to the floor, or as close to parallel as you can comfortably go.
  4. Hold this position for a few seconds, focusing on engaging your quadriceps (front of thighs) and glutes (butt muscles).
  5. Push through your heels and straighten your legs to return to the starting position.

Wall Wall Squat Tips

  1. Position yourself with your back against a wall, feet hip-width apart, and about 2 feet away from the wall.
  2. Slowly slide down the wall, bending your knees and keeping your back straight, until your thighs are parallel to the floor.
  3. Make sure your knees are directly above your ankles and not extending past your toes to protect your joints.
  4. Engage your quads by pressing your feet into the floor and pushing yourself back up the wall.
  5. Focus on maintaining a slow and controlled movement throughout the exercise to maximize quad activation.
  6. If you find it challenging, start with shorter holds and gradually increase the duration as your strength improves.
  7. For an extra challenge, try holding a dumbbell or kettlebell against your chest while performing the wall squat.
