Skiiers are often told to do them daily as they emulate the position and tension created through skiing and snowboarding. They also do a darn good job of building your quads. As far as Static holds go Planks have received so much good press recently I am surprised these have been left in the shadows. They do a superb job of building your core and developing endurance in the legs. [...] [...] Wall sits are amazing an building endurance in the legs.

Standing and kneeling down are quite different. @george

Foot placement can be near or far from the wall - in this case his feet are close to the wall, so lowering his back would actually be bad for his knees. Although yes, it does appear he'd be better off with his feet further from the wall. George, his knees are bent at about a 90 degree angle, and that’s what matters in this pose.
