Get Up Off The Floor Without Using Your Hands? Change Life Expectancy!

Can you get up off the floor without using your hands? What does is have to do with Mortality (when you will die)?
In this video, I’ll show you a test to see if you can get off the floor without using your hands called the “sit rise test” and exercises to help you get up. Successful completion of this test has been shown to decrease mortality and extend your life.
But what if you can’t get off the floor without your hands? Or even with them?
How to get off the floor is critical if you want to stay out of the hospital, taking care of your body’s flexibility, strength, and balance are your best bet to do so!

I’ll also show you some safe ways to get up from the floor if you need to use your hands and have limited strength.
