I have decided to engage with a personal trainer. I have gotten so frail in the past year (it started around this time last year). I used to be able to do the sit to stand. I have discussed it with my cardiologist and he said to do whatever I must to gain some strength and I got a steady chair that I am using. It is so strange to slide down this path, but I will start somewhere. Being depressed is not helping much either. Thanks for being a positive influence.

I’m going to show this to my 70 year old neighbour ! Thank you

[@ExerciseForHealth]

[@cherrymetha3185]

Ha ha, Try the test anyway, see if you can beat my time of just over 5 seconds!

[@hejakma4682]

Touch the chair or sit is a big differnce.

[@ExerciseForHealth]

As I demonstrate in the video, the bottom must "touch" the chair to ensure that the muscles are continuously activated throughout the test. Once you're sat down the muscles relax which you can do on the 5th one!

Hi, I’m on the journey to become a professional football player, but I have numerous issues and I’m not entirely sure why. I’m 16 years old and athletic, so I’m not entirely sure if they are even actual problems that I should take into account and just play with. My lower back area hurts under intensive play, I have knee issues where it just pains remarkably, my hip flexor area feels strained to lift above my stomach after a game, and I’ve had no surgeries and I do have a strength program. I’ve also been following along on your videos on lower back pain, hip pain, and others. Do you have any other recommendations or have any idea what the issue may be?

[@user-bb8vf3tq6l]

Thanks, Richard. Very helpful. I am 68. What weight of dumpbells do you recommend?
