Background: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of foot pressure distribution in squat exercise of three forms. Method: Participants were 36 students (males 18, females 18) who don’t have knee joint disorder. We had divided them into 3 groups(stable support surface group, gym ball group, wall slide group) and we measured maximum pressure difference and weight distribution. Result: Maximum pressure among the three groups was significantly different after exercise(p<.05). Conclusion: Based on these results, maximum pressure difference of both feet was the smallest average value and significantly. Therefore, this result purposes wall slide squat to increase muscle strength of the knee joint, and to decrease maximum pressure difference of both feet during squat.
