Are you ready for our Sitting Squat Challenge?

As part of our Fad Free GMB diet and fitness plan we've been asking some friends of Good Morning Britain to take our Sitting Squat Challenge, putting their muscles to the test!

Naturally the first person we asked was one of our plan's contributors Tom Daley - but we have a feeling the challenge was just a tad too easy for him.

Think you can do better? Tweet or Instagram us a picture or video of you doing your Sitting Squad Challenge including your time - or email it to us at gmb@itvcom.

Terms and conditions

How to do the Sitting Squat:

  • Stand with your feet approximately shoulder width apart and beside a solid wall/structure

  • Lower yourself down the wall until your thighs are parallel to the floor or create a 90 degree angle from your ankle/knee/hip joint

  • Keep your knees in-line with your ankles as much as possible and try not to let them move beyond level with your toes

  • Ensure you keep your chest and head up to protect your spine. Try not to look down or bend forward

  • Keep your bum/back/shoulders/head flat against the wall at all times

  • Try not to brace yourself against your legs and allow your arms to drop naturally to your side

  • Maintain your breathing throughout and remain as still as possible at the lowest point
