🧘‍♂️ How Well Can You Sit and Rise from the Floor? 🪑⬆️

That simple motion might say more about your longevity than you think.

A 12-year study of 4,282 adults found that lower Sit–Rise Test (SRT) scores predicted 3.8x higher natural death and 6x higher cardiovascular death rates. 😱

✅ No equipment

✅ Under 2 minutes

✅ Predicts survival

Score 0–4? It drops to 73%.
