[@Jim-bh7gs]

Nope, but I'll hold to that video. I am near 80 and lost so much flexibility and strength during lockdown. I was/became sedentary with a vengeance. Without realizing it at the time. I think I'm going to need a shot for the sacroiliac or back to get moving. In general I have found your vids very "challenging."

i used to have this but now i don’t even have that after 5 minutes

Wall sits are amazing, they don’t hurt my knees and are great for building leg strength. My record so far is 5 minutes

Isometric exercises like wall sits, planks can even lower Blood pressure.

[@cockamamy]

Is it the same as doing squats?

[@srzjumper]

I used to do these in middle school before I had access to weights and wanted to do some lower body workout. I would hold as long as possible, very painful. However this would be concentrated in the lower/front of the thighs, and it seemed to work in helping my overall athleticism.

[@randomvidz8742]

You mean quadriceps’s

[@salad_gold_rancher]

You can do it! I did this every day after school in wrestling practice.

when i used to get bad grades my father used to make chair like this one with wall i remember the pain for more than i hour

[@SoccerByCC]

I just hit my PR 1 minute 43 seconds it hurt but I’m also not even a teen yet so my coach said it’s good but everyone else is doing so much better

[@user-mk8fu8yj6l]

[@wilvasoot]

i absolutely love that exercise. so far, my record is 4h30. gonna try to do 5 hour at the end of school year to try and beat the school record (witch is me)

[@prince2143]

What the heck I think you can handle pooping without cramping your legs 😂

[@wilvasoot]

@@prince2143 hahaha, the worse thing is that I'm starting to develop leg problems and I still can hold for a very long time and still will soon beat my own record 😅

[@UnlimeitedMK]

best shit do this after a leg day as your last exercise put a timer on for 3 mins everytime you fall you accrue a 20 bodyweight squat after the 3 mins count is done when you fall you take a standing 8 sec9nd count and then continue eg 3 fails = 60 squats

[@gautamsharma4083]

Instructions unclear, My glass broke, not only my legs my whole body shivering now 😭

[@harkiratsingh-rm4zw]

my class is having a competition tomorrow it ivolves wall sits, planks, sit-ups and even pushups most likely wall pushups!, but yeah im very excited

[@barfuss2007]

I did this today 20 times holding about10 seconds each

[@amitbikram9031]

If you really want push this keep a small gap between your back from wall. Back mean the lower spine

[@narbelethderaude9043]

Which muscles does it strengthen please? TIA

[@salad_gold_rancher]

Just about your whole leg! You can work in a core exercise by engaging the core too.

[@Jim-bh7gs]

Any idea how I'd get up?

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Hi! You can push your back up while stepping backwards.

[@dwaynejohnson286]

can we do it after food?

[@fif04]

What does this achieve in terms of muscle building

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Wall sits are great for building strength in your quadriceps (thigh muscles), glutes (buttocks), and core muscles. - YOGABODY Team

[@rawkiller2023]

My legs are sore because i did 10 minutes and im 12 dont quit yall

[@randomvidz8742]

You can do it that long because you have an smaller frame and weight a lot less than an adult and are less stiff and more flexible so it’s easier

@@randomvidz8742skill issue

[@Smileyassassin47c]

grippy shoes or not? I feel it's way harder in a stance where your feet are slipping(like only in socks, but while avoiding slipping ofc). but then again im not sure if this is even good for the knees

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Depends on the room floor. Best to check that if there's tension or you're trying to resist on your toes against the floor, best to look for a stable mat that can help you make a more stable stance. -YOGABODY Team

[@shahllamirhosseini4730]

What is this useful for?

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Great for your core, hips, and knees. But overall, good for your posture.

[@karlthomson-4868]

Thanks master 😊

[@YOGABODY.Official]

[@Marigold-ip3gw]

What is the benefit to doing so? Ty

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Wall sits primarily target strengthening the lower body muscles, including the quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes. This exercise helps improve endurance, stability, and overall leg strength, which can be beneficial for various activities and sports requiring lower body power. - YOGABODY Team

Should I arch my lower back while sitting?

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Better if it's straight up!

[@sarahdavis3805]

Why can't I do any other exercise because of low back pain, but I can hold this until the cows come home?

[@dr.bunnywilson8321]

And exactly what does that do.???

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Wall sits primarily strengthen your quads, glutes, and core. They also improve balance and endurance. - YOGABODY Team

[@jatinsingla7863]

im 14 , i have started doing a workout now from the day before yesterday...today was the leg day according to that workout routine so after doing that leg workout , my legs don't have any energy now to do this wall sit bruh i cant even do 5 seconds now

[@YOGABODY.Official]

It takes practice and consistency to build muscle. Start with a few seconds, and gradually increase the time each day until you can comfortably hold a full 1-minute wall sit. - YOGABODY Team

[@jatinsingla7863]

@@YOGABODY.Official i m not that weak tho it was just because of the leg workout i did just before doing the wall sit...but i do fully agree on your statement sir , i know i need patience and i need to be consistent! and i will be consistent

@@jatinsingla7863Wall sits are best after a leg workout, I do the every time I have to do legs

Doing this exact exercise I hurt myself but it was completely my fault

[@YOGABODY.Official]

I'm sorry to hear that. Be sure to use proper form and start with shorter durations when doing wall sits to avoid injury. - YOGABODY Team

And how to stand up normal again or just let fall your body?

Proper single leg wall sit form??

[@user-hu4jt3kg2c]

Can't even hold for 6 sec😭

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Starting with shorter durations and gradually increasing can help build strength for wall sits. It's normal to begin with shorter times and progress as you become more comfortable. - YOGABODY Team

i can only do this bout 2 minutes then i fell😭😭

[@YOGABODY.Official]

That's amazing! A 2-minute wall sit is no easy feat, keep practicing - YOGABODY Team

[@azdhan]

👍 Great video. There is very compelling research to show that the back wall squat when done consistently has been found to reduce systolic blood pressure as dramatically if not more than the most effective high blood pressure reducing meds. Dr Gil Carvalho did an excellent You Tube Video in which he did a deep dive into that research to confirm its validity.
