Healthy Pelvic Floor Muscles has launched a new guide covering wall sits and the benefits they offer as a pelvic floor exercise that also strengthens and tones the core and lower body.
—
The site notes that wall sits are a staple of middle school PE tests, but many women don't realize that they can also be used in adulthood to improve their posture, increase endurance, and reduce the risk of injury. The new guide examines how they can form an integral part of a daily exercise routine that can be completed anywhere.

Healthy Pelvic Floor Muscles says in its latest guide that when an individual performs a wall sit, their quads, glutes, and hamstrings bear the brunt of supporting their body weight in a sustained squat against the wall. The legs are positioned shoulder-width apart, knees bent at 90 degrees. Maintaining an upright posture also engages the arms, shoulders, and core muscles.
Many women will face pelvic floor dysfunction in their lifetime, leading to symptoms like pelvic organ prolapse. By performing wall sits, women can build strength in their pelvic muscles to help avoid these common issues. When done regularly, gradually increasing wall sit duration allows the pelvic floor muscles to adapt and become stronger over time, the guide says.
Readers are encouraged to squeeze their core during the exercise to improve spine stabilization and posture. The sustained squat position also stretches tight hip flexors, improving the range of motion.
Regularly performing wall sits builds muscular endurance, Healthy Pelvic Floor Muscles says. The thighs, glutes, and calves bear the brunt of body weight during the sustained squat, and over time, increased strength allows for easier execution of daily activities like climbing stairs, getting up from a chair, and lifting objects.
The guide was written by Barbara Miller, a licensed chiropractor who helps patients address pain and dysfunction through exercise. She notes that many women are self-conscious about discussing pelvic health openly. With her guide, she aims to educate and empower them to take control of pelvic wellness through simple at-home exercises.
She states: "I am passionate about helping others feel better in their own bodies without relying on harsh medications or invasive treatments. I also enjoy educating people on the importance of physical health and wellness, which I do through my writing as well as through my practice."
