Summary

The wall squat exercise has been used in several research studies to help lower blood pressure. However, setting up the correct squat position often involves using a joint angle-measuring tool called a goniometer to get the knee at exactly the right angle. To set up the wall squat using a goniometer, someone has to stand in position, hold still while their knee angle is measured and adjusted, and then measure how high they should squat. This takes time, can be uncomfortable, and can be difficult to hold steady. This can make it difficult to get accurate measurements, particularly for people who are not used to exercise.

Therefore, the purpose of this research is to explore if a squat height calculator (based on leg bone measurements) to work out the squat height agrees with goniometer measurements for specific knee joint angles.
