Welp, I NEVER could do that cross-legged sit-to-stand test at all. Not today & not 25 years ago... Shoulda been dead already cause it's been way longer than 6 years since I first tried & failed this
It looks like there's a lot of confusion around the sit-to-stand test (mostly because this video didn't explain it well). It really only applies to the elderly: a lack of mobility and muscle strength to do a basic movement like that usually is a bad sign for their longevity. It doesn't really apply as much to the young or middle aged. Furthermore, it's only a predictor/factor, not a guarantee of death. But take it from someone whose spouse is a physical therapist whose worked in nursing homes: keeping your mobility and muscle strength is very important to a long, healthy life. We'll be doing tons of yoga when we get closer to that age 😉
From personal test, 20 out of 20 who can do asian squat, they can do that to.. (The sit to stand) 🤣🤣 Its just funny how they found out and somehow connect that to your health..
THIS IS NONSENSE! I wish that I could've given this a million thumbs down! If it was true I wouldn't have been here writing this! When I was 28 years old, a gentleman used to do this every day. I tried to do it on many occasions but failed so I should've been dead since I was 34 years old! After 34 years I'm still here; I'm now 68 years old! These days everyone wants to do something on tv thinking that they'd be famous.
It’s too bad they were all trying to talk at the same time. It made it confusing at times. They seemed to be oblivious to when one of the other was speaking.
What is you know what? Heart disease or death? I wish the sit and stand test went by age too. Because a 20 year old could do it more so than a 60 year old...
Great! Both me and my husband can't do the cross leg thing but we're not that fat. We'll let you know guys in 6years 😢😅

Exactly!
Yea but here’s the thing, my ankle was crushed in an accident. So I literally CANNOT 😮😢
So I had my medial meniscus removed from left knee and my right one tore and was trimmed down. I wouldn’t be able to do that
And if you are on blood pressure and other heart meds, then normal heart rate varies. This is not accurate information at all for heart patients.
Love how nothing worked, haha.
The blood pressure cuff wasn’t even on correctly!
Well i can do it with heals iam asian..
