Do this test to see if you'll live longer. It's called the Sit and Raise Test. Here's how to do it: You stand up, cross your legs back, and go into a seated position. Then from that position, you get yourself back up to a seated position. Researchers tested 2000 adults ages 51-80. They followed them for an average of 6.3 years & out of the 159 people who died only 2 scored a perfect 10. Those who scored the lowest scores had a 5-6x higher risk of dying than those who scored 8-10. Older adults who have muscular strength & flexibility are less likely to fall. Falls are the leading cause of unintentional injury-related deaths for people 65 & older. The sit & raise is a test for basic strength & mobility. You lose a point if: - You place your hands on the floor - Need support - Touch knee to the ground - Lose balance - Support yourself on your side of the leg You get 0 points if you can’t do this at all. Scored a 10? Great. Scored less than a 10? Use that as a baseline to improve on.
