Or we think about

If we go down, how we're going to go and get back up.

And guess what?

That floor hasn't changed a bit.

But our relationship with it has

And this is one reason that

I've thought about and I come back to and I check different papers and what the research, you know, sort of reconfirms, I guess, um, over some studies.

And I want to share with you a couple of studies from Brazil that examined an incredibly simple movement.

That

Isn't so simple when we exercise it, but has real impact on our sort of life longevity and adaptation and our ability to live well and reduce risk of dying early.

So this is another important place to be really registering with this.

And this research and this movement is actually sitting on the floor.

And getting back up, rising back up.

So the researchers and the studies I'm going to share, um, they weren't measuring speed.

They were interested in how people could complete the task, the movement.

And how much support they needed along the way.

They evaluated like, did a hand come down when they were trying to get down?

So they were given sort of a method that they were asked to perform, but not to do anything that was risky.

They wanted to evaluate people's natural ability to get down onto the floor and get back up.
