How To: Wall-Sit

[ethan1336]

Is there a difference between a wall sit and wall squat?

[MisterEminemFan]

Hey, I loved your tutorial on how to wall sit!

I have one question though...

How many sets should I do?

[MotoX1NHRA]

that's exactly how i wipe my ass

[mmlaxplaya17]

You look like a pledge, Geed

[IGRANTYI]

I looked up this vid just to get the right name of this exercise, anyway perfect technique man and demonstration as an example 5/5

[EstupedMexicanz]

Is this good for soccer

[lwst82]

Is it weird that I can squat my own bodyweight but this exercise kills me quickly?

[pharaohphreak123]

@lwst82 no its not....if you could hold a squat with your body weight on the bar without it gettin you as fast as the chair then maybe....

[KovaProductions]

i pull a muscle in my ass because my hockey couch made us do it for 10 min and if we got up we had to do it longer.

DON'T EVEN ASK HOW I PULLED A MUSCLE IN MY ASS I DON'T KNOW EITHER.

[jamasterj25786]

does this increase your vertical?

[EmoBirdy10]

I have to do these for vollyball >.< But they work! Thanks :3

[ReZeeR93]

Try it without the wall, like bending your knees 90 degrees but keeping your back straight and dont lean against anything, arms in front

[JDilla2812]

I heard that tom platz would do this after a set of squatting

[PinkRoxyChick01]

Your face after a couple of minutes is priceless... Your kinda like "omg..." haha

[warman0712]

What's the longest time you've ever heard anyone do this for?

[turningheadfart]

i have a flat butt and chicken legs, can this get me at least a little bigger? and are there any other home excerises for the butt?

[GUIPenguin]

@turningheadfart  no. Just squat.

[treinosa86]

So I subscribed, and uh, I really want to get 6 pack abs, I'm 6'5 @ 205, and want to also get some upper body strength too. I run about 3-4 miles daily to get to at least 10% body fat to to visible see my god given abs, but just want to improve them. You seem like the guy to come to for some instructions and motivation. I'm at a low point in my life where I just want to look good and feel good about myself. I'm passing up the bars with friends and girl because I want to feel good. Help me

[suparpowers]

whats so good about a wall-sit? seems pointless...

[ScottHermanFitness]

@suparpowers I have an amazing idea... try it.. and then let us all know about your experience :) You might learn something! and your legs might start shaking...

[suparpowers]

@ScottHermanFitness Lol I kinda knew it was a leg excersize but it isn't that effective... and no my legs didn't shake :p I am used to do leg excersises :D

[garzaesparzagustavo]

@suparpowers there's a study that proves that this exercise can help you run a mile in 30 seconds less

[betrekwoman]

@garzaesparzagustavo most reasonably fit people can run a mile in under 10 minutes. I can run one in 7.

[JEBBROSKEE]

@suparpowers helps you jump higher

[OfWordsAndWisdom]

@suparpowers wall sits are very effective for your vertical

[iloveexploring]

can anybody explain me .what this exercise is for??? and thx herman

[XxXjasonbeckXxX]

@iloveexploring says at the beginning 

[Kaa5im]

After doing wall sit my knees hurts. why is it like that? i am 17years old

[ScottHermanFitness]

@Kaa5im maybe you are going too low?

[Kaa5im]

@ScottHermanFitness ok i will try to stay high... =]

[cicirunner]

@Kaa5im They hurt my knees too. I think that's the nature of the exercise.

[Kaa5im]

@cicirunner no man. hurting knee or back is not a nature of any exercise. if your knees hurt and you can solve the problem. i suggest you to do some other exercise. be careful while doing any exercise. =]

[swaGGer2k10]

Tank

[trutalentmanagement1]

I'm totally having flashbacks from high school... This stuff burns like nuts...

[gunstarJPY]

lmao, i try it while pausing the video and my legs are on fire after 30 secs. ^!^

[aznpatrik00]

i dont know why, but i want to see you do a workout video with ice1cube and HanhChampion..

[pedritooo09]

I do that while doing bicep curls and calf raises , I ROCK

[ScottHermanFitness]

@pedritooo09 yes.. you DO rock :)

[junkjanedoe]

cool

[egosblue8]

it's really burning...great exercise

[jexman41]

Dear Mr. Herman, can you lend me a few of your extra muscles (you seem to have quite a few) for a few days? i got a date

[ShawyTheFirst]

how about one leg wall sits, are those safe for your body?

[itsgeraldt]

lol you must be running out of exercises to be showing people how to do these extremely simple ones ... just sayin

[Rastadudeqictures]

We´d to do this on gymnastics lesson once. Our most athletic guys barley made it to the time limit (4min), but one girl sat for 10 whole min. :o impressive

[I9F6R13E5]

omg this is super hard I can't even hold this position in 10 seconds

[MooseheadDrinker]

SCOTT:

Here are a couple of tips to make this exercise better/safer:

wedge a skateboard between your back and the wall.

place a stool under your ass to prevent yourself from going down too far.

[KODmasta07]

Scott is a fuckin BEAST!...He should do an iron man competition!

[sreee348]

One of my friends can do this for twenty minutes strait...insane

[pollwoll]

@sreee348 ... no they can't, and even if they could nobody has watched them sit on a wall for twenty minutes. and if they have.. they clearly have no life

[ganeshrakesh]

we do this in gym class

[Getterades]

I do this all the time for soccer! We call it a static squat and I can do it for 5 min straight! I did it for one min and the next day I saw an inch of muscle popping off my thigh and the day before none, NO EXAGGERATION. Ever since then I've been doing 2 5 min intervals daily.

[TrancedNRG]

This was one of the exercises I was prescribed after I dislocated my knee...Ended up making 9 minutes lol.

[janc367]

it doesnt even look like ur doing anything hahaha scott ur a beast!

[jordan1001tv]

I do this in basketball practice.

[AlexthePanda]

Very cool. I haven't seen this exercise before. It looks like it's going to hurt.

[coolboy065]

wow ur awsm scott!

[mcrishTV]

I CAN DO THIS N PLAYIN PS3 N EATING CHIPS!

[tazdeville55]

Awesome info!

[HakuCell]

why should I sit on a wall? there are chairs you know..

[VeggieOrtiz]

I love this workout! Legs are the parts of my body I work out the most and this is what I usually do after a workout, when I'm resting, drinking a cup of chocolate milk.

[claudia1515]

you make it look so easy to hold there for that long... =)

[bakabakamaka1]

nice thing what to do, when in the school is no one chair left to seat :D

[333irani333]

how much do u bench scott?

[outsidelinebacker99]

@333irani333 he benches 325, he facebooked me about it

[sharkrape]

When I saw the vid in my sub box I thought it said how to take a wall shit (o_o)

[gregamponsa]

i like to drop down after wallsits. it feels like an orgasm in the legs!

[KrazePro18]

scott i challenge u 2 try 1000 pushups in 1 hour, vote up soo he could read it and try ti !

[Madoxyama]

@KrazePro18 I do not think that the main idea of fitness is to do as many push ups as possible. 1000 is much to much. We should do several types of exercises during an hour. But to do 1000 push ups ( I do not say that is impossible) it may become boring after a time.

[KrazePro18]

@Madoxyama I have tryed it sir, and i have only been able 2 do 600, im pretty scott can do it !

[dchoopsta]

any tips for strech marks in teens?..not overweight but result of over working chest

[caesarlivenloud]

scott any tips for at home workouts for people with respiratory problems like asthma & rhinitis?

[BenAyrre]

scott have you ever / do you ever take creatine?

[iamafractal]

This was the punishment in elementary school gym... and they'd make us hold the position for many minutes... 1/2 hour or more sometimes...

[keitho97]

Thanks for inspiring us and motivating us. And to think you do it all for free ! We appreciate you...

[MasterOfPES]

@keitho97 You do realise he gets shet load of money from this videos right? You can still say he does it for free towards us as we dont have to pay anything, but he does get money from youtube ads (and he also has ads on the video itself).

Still good videos :)

[merezfinestz08]

@keitho97 idiot he doesnt do it for free youtube pays him

[SoloShow]

@merezfinestz08 plus sponsors

[GFXEditing]

@merezfinestz08 Youtube doesn't, the people with the adverts do, usually Google ads

[keitho97]

@merezfinestz08 call me an idiot if you want.. but I havent written a check to him.. I am not aware of his personal finances, and I would assume that you arent either (it isnt any of our business to begin with)..If we can get fitness tips for free and a sponsor pays him - I dont care.. so much for posting a positive comment.. thanks for the negativity

[ddshane]

@keitho97  Amen

[Xunizixkun]

@keitho97 he has ad's so it's no completly for free, he get's paid.

[qoodrink347]

how does he do it so well?!

[Farve4ever589]

hey scott how much do you weigh

[karatejoe111]

420th video

[gmingeli]

You actually do this without struggling and talking like nothing is happening, RESPECT!

[Pokemonguy16RS]

@mrmoss812 its all about hard work. , just lift , do exercises correctly , And EAT

[MDkid1]

I hate these, they kill, but they are very effective!

[thegarbageman21]

@mrmoss812 lift heavy and eat. Not complicated.

[suddeninsight]

Burning like hell
