Are you aging well?

How do you know if you are aging well? These 3 exercises will give you a pretty good idea

1. Getting up from the floor without using your hands is a good marker of lower body strength and core strength

2. Putting on socks while balancing on one leg is a good test for core strength, vestibular and cerebellar function (brain areas that control balance). Having good balance is key to avoiding falls as you age.

3. A dead hang of 40 seconds is an excellent marker of grip strength, which in turn is a good marker of upper body strength and longevity. (If you are over 50 years of age, even 30 sec dead hang is a good metric)

Warning: if you have never tried these before, be careful to avoid falling or injury.

Bro i can do all of this and still be overweight, is it a sign that if i change my habits i can achieve my dream body ? (Not as in obese but a bit fat)

[eldhosekurian]

It highly depends on age of the person as well. This yardstick cannot use in same way for a 30 years old and 60 years old person. You please bring in the age linked yardsticks

I can do the first two but never tried the third one. I am confident that I shall pass.
