All 4's to Stand

You know it's important to maintain your ability to get up and down off the floor as you age.

Here is a functional exercise you can incorporate into your workouts to perfect that skill.

Do all the reps on one leg before switching to the second leg. It's a good idea to start with your weaker leg first. I'll start with the right leg here

Keep your right foot planted and step your left knee back and down into a kneeling lunge. Place your hands on the ground and bring the right knee down so you're in all 4's. Bring the right leg up, hands on thigh, and stand.
That's one repetition.

To progress the movement, clasp the hands in front of your chest rather than leaning on the thigh for support. If you need to regress it, hold on to a sturdy chair for assistance.

Complete 8-10 reps and switch sides.

Remember, use it or lose it!
