- Start with your back against a wall with your feet shoulder width and about 2 feet from the wall.
- Engage your abdominal muscles and slowly slide your back down the wall until your thighs are parallel to the ground.
- Adjust your feet so your knees are directly above your ankles (rather than over your toes).
- Keep your back flat against the wall.
- Hold the position for 20 to 60 seconds.
- Slide slowly back up the wall to a standing position.
- Rest 30 seconds and repeat the exercise three times. Increase your hold time by five seconds as you increase your strength.
Common Mistakes
- Thighs Not Parallel to the Ground
