I did some breath spin up.

I moved a little bit more when I was at work.

I sat on the ground for 20 or 30 minutes in the evening at home while watching TV.

And maybe I did a little mobility work.

I pulled out a roller and said, what's tight?

Look at that day.

It's pretty agnostic of exercise, but...

We put a lot of inputs into the body.

And sometimes that's what we're trying to do.

And since most of us go to work, maybe there's an opportunity to get some more inputs.

If we look at the number one reason people end up in nursing homes, can't get up and down off the ground independently.

So let's practice that.

So now I have this practice where I have to get up and down off the ground.

And it's built into something I'm doing.

Most of us are watching TV.

This is the truth.

So what we found was that this was a simple behavior to put in.

where you could be in some of these end range positions that you just don't touch very often.

Sit with your legs straight out in front of you.

Oh, that's uncomfortable.
