Can you sit down on the floor and get back without the help of your hands or knees? This simple challenge is called the ’
Sitting Rising Test’. Clever name. Although scientists argue whether this test is trustworthy in telling anything about your health, you can still use it to check whether your muscles and heart are strong enough. If you’re unable to get off the floor without the support of your hands or knees, maybe it’s time to return to the gym
. Stretch out your hand and place a ring on the crook of your elbow, then rotate your palm. If the ring didn’t fall, you’re a rare person. Some say only
2% of people can do that, but that’s arguable.
