Rakul Preet Singh's sartorial choices and impeccable fashion have always received head turns ever since her debut. But this time, it's not her fashion that has grabbed our eyeballs. It's her fitness routine that is worth admiration. Rakul indulged in a quick fitness check while on a shoot. The actress kept her fitness in check as she demonstrated wall sits in a video shared by her hairstylist.
A wall sit is an exercise that involves squatting and muscle contraction while being in a static position. The exercise looks easy to perform but requires immense leg strength to ace the technique. Here are a few benefits of wall sits and why you need to include this physical exercise in your workout routine too.
Tones the muscles of the lower body
The wall sit activates and tones the muscles in the entire lower body including the hamstrings, calf muscles, quadriceps, and others. It builds strength while toning the muscles.
Increases muscular endurance and stamina
The secret benefit of wall sits lies in practicing them regularly. As you practice the exercise more, you will be able to hold yourself in the position for longer periods of time which in turn will lead to muscular endurance. This can benefit other exercises like running and cycling.

Enhances stability
Another benefit of a wall sit is stabilising the abdominal and lower back muscles. It helps in building the core as well as maintaining balance while performing other exercises.
Improves posture
Regular practice of this physical activity will also help the body to improve its posture. When done properly, wall sits will tone and strengthen the lower body muscles which will in turn help you get a straighter back and a better posture.
Just like Rakul Preet Singh, include this exercise in your workout regimen for a stronger and well-toned lower body.
