After an indulgent day of peanut butter cookies and french silk pie, I’m ready to put the birthday treats behind me and am excited for Baylen to get up from his morning nap so we can make our way to the gym today.
To continue with the Exercises for a Better Butt series, the move for this week is the wall squat! Wall squats are great because they can be performed anywhere and don’t require any equipment.
How To Do A Wall Squat
Stand with your feet about two to three feet away from the wall with your back and head against the wall. Your arms should be down by your sides. From there, lower down into a squat position until your thighs are parallel with the floor. Hold for as long as you can, before rising up to complete the rep. The longer you hold the wall squat the more intense it will be, so aim to work your way up to one minute straight.
What to Do:
For the next 7 days, do 10 wall squats each day. Feel free to spread them out or do them all at once.
This exercise will strengthen and firm up your lower body in a hurry!
Happy Squatting! 🙂
