Swiss-Ball Body-Weight Wall Squat for Women

Swiss-Ball Body-Weight Wall Squat

  1. Hold a Swiss ball behind you and stand so that the ball is pinned between your back and the wall. Place your feet about 2 feet in front of your body.
  2. Keeping your back in contact with the ball, lower your body until your upper thighs are at least parallel to the floor.

Tip If you have trouble doing a standard body-weight squat, try the Swiss-ball version. It requires less core strength which makes the exercise easier while helping you learn perfect form.

This move has been excerpted from The Women's Health Big Book of Exercises by Adam Campbell.

This Move Works:

Calves, Core, Glutes, Hamstrings, Quadriceps
