NO GYM LEG WORKOUT! Wall Squats.

-

 


Wall squats, also known as wall sits, can be a great exercise for strengthening your quadriceps, glutes, and core muscles. Here's the proper technique for doing wall squats:

1. Stand with your back against a wall, with your feet shoulder-width apart and your toes pointing straight ahead.
2. Slowly slide your back down the wall until your thighs are parallel to the floor, as if you are sitting on an invisible chair.
3. Keep your knees directly above your ankles, and make sure your knees are not pushing forward beyond your toes.
4. Hold this position for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or as long as you can without compromising your form.
5. Slowly stand back up, pushing through your heels and engaging your quadriceps, glutes, and core muscles.

It's important to maintain good posture throughout the exercise, keeping your back straight and your shoulders relaxed. Remember to breathe deeply and evenly throughout the exercise, and avoid holding your breath. You can gradually increase the time you spend in the wall squat position as you get stronger.
