Simple Sitting Test That May Help Predict How Long You'll Live!

Claudio Gil Araujo and his associates formulated a really simple sitting test to predict how

much longer adults aged 51-80 have left to live which can be done anywhere.

This test was recently released in the European Journal of Preventative Cardiology and has

been reported on Discover Magazine.

How The Sitting-Rise Test Works

The first step is to use comfortable clothes and be barefoot, then stand in a clear area

without any objects near you.

Lower yourself to the floor, into a cross-legged position then stand back up again.

You should not lean on anything while lowering or raising yourself and each time you use

your hands, knees, forearms or side of your legs for assistance or to help raise or lower

yourself you lose one point and whenever you lose balance you lose half a point.

It takes five points to get up correctly and 5 points to lower yourself correctly.

Try It

1.

Stand in comfortable clothes in your bare feet, with clear area around you.

2.

Without leaning on anything, lower yourself to a sitting position on the floor.

3.

Now stand back up, trying not to use your hands, knees, forearms or sides of your legs.

Scoring

The two standard movements in the sitting-rising test– lowering to the floor and standing

back up– are each scored on a 1-to-5 scale, with one point subtracted each time a hand

or knee is used for assistance and 0.5 points subtracted for loss of balance; this yields

a single 10-point scale.

Results of the Sitting-Rising Test

This test was conducted on 2002 adults between the ages of 51 and 80 (mostly men) with an

average follow up of just over 6 years.

Within this time there were 159 deaths and it was discovered that these deaths followed

the pattern that the lower the SRT test score, the higher the mortality rate [1], each point

lost on the SRT Test was found to equate to roughly 21% mortality.

Reasons for the SRT Test

In developing the SRT Test Claudio Gil Araujo felt that many tests to predict death were

impractical, time-consuming and could be subject to error such as the clinician's speed with

the stop watch or the height of the chair used.

Claudio wanted to find a way that took away these limitations and was accessible to everyone.

What This Test Teaches Us

According to the test 'Musculoskeletal fitness, as assessed by SRT, was a significant predictor

of mortality in 51-80 year old subjects.'

This means that by doing things to improve our musculoskeletal fitness we may be able

to improve our life expectancy.

Although this test was not done with younger subjects it is believed that the earlier it

is done, the longer the person may have to improve their physical fitness levels and

so increase their life expectancy.

It motivates people to get active and get into shape.

The Sitting-Rising Test is a test that was created by Claudio Gil Araujo to be accessible

to everybody and a way of testing how good our musculoskeletal fitness levels are, which

in turn has been seen to have a strong correlation to our mortality rates.

By doing this test and getting a better understanding of our life expectancy, it is hoped that we

will take the necessary step to improve our lives and live longer.

found a jar of Signature brand creamy peanut butter it is dated to expire in

June of 2017 well this is the end of August 2017 and today I opened the jar of expired peanut butter and

immediately as soon as I removed the plastic lid before I open the seal I

could smell that the peanut butter didn't smell right was no longer good no longer safe to eat once I removed the peanut butter paper foil seal I

could tell the peanut butter just doesn't smell right the expired unopened peanut butter is no longer good or safe to eat this happened to me a few years ago with
