30-second wall sit

A wall sit means holding a seated position against a wall, thighs parallel to the floor, for 30 seconds. It is silent, needs no space, and lets your legs speak up before your thumb does.

How to do it

30-second wall sit, step by step.

  1. Stand with your back flat against a wall.

  2. Walk your feet forward and slide down until your thighs are about parallel to the floor.

  3. Keep your knees above your ankles and breathe steadily.

  4. Hold for 30 seconds, then slide back up.

Seated version

Seated: squeeze thighs together, 30 seconds.

Why this Move

Why it's a good Move before a scroll.

  • Silent: perfect for flats and late evenings

  • Works your legs without moving an inch

  • Only needs a wall and 30 seconds

Stop if anything hurts, and swap the Move with “I can't do this” in the app. MiniMove is a wellbeing app, not medical advice.

Questions

About 30-second wall sit

How long does it take?

About 30 seconds, start to finish. Every Move in MiniMove takes 90 seconds or less.

What if I can't do it?

Do the seated version instead. Seated: squeeze thighs together, 30 seconds. Still not right for you today? “I can't do this” in the app swaps in another Move and stops suggesting this one.

How many minutes does it unlock?

Whatever the Move, it opens the app for the window you chose: 5, 15, 30 or 60 minutes of real use (15 by default), capped at twice that on the clock. It also goes into your Bank. With MiniMove+ “Earn more” on, doing it twice in a row earns a double window, up to 60 minutes.
