Most people don’t realize they’re losing strength, balance, and mobility until everyday things start feeling harder: getting up from the floor, walking upstairs without using the railing, standing on one leg while putting on their shoes or turning the body or the head quickly without feeling unstable.
These aren’t 'ageing problems', but signs that the body is asking for more movement, more strength, and better balance training.
A simple self-check with 3 tests:
- Stand on one leg for 20 seconds without holding onto anything
- Sit down and get up from the floor without using your hands
- Bend forward and try to touch your toes without bending your knees
Give them a try (and share how did it go!)! If any of these felt difficult, it’s useful information... Let's work on it!
