So very many thanks Dr Candy! This is about the best way I’ve seen to get yourself back up after a fall. So very informative and shows every step necessary!! Much appreciated.
@4.28 - this is perfect for when I try to get up from the floor after a sitting meditation session in a communal place where the space is compact! And also I don't have to be on my knees! I've yet to come across this technique on YT so Thank you Dr Candy!! All the way from Singapore!
You're welcome. You basically use momentum to throw your hips 180 degrees from down to up. If you go too slow or don't get all the way around, it requires significantly more thigh strength to get the rest of the way around.
Not sure if you've seen this yet, but there was an update of this video just posted yesterday with 2 other techniques + 3 strengthening exercises to help if you have lost some muscle strength. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-w2XGuPOFLRA.html
Kneeling may be your better option in that case. Here's a video on foot drop exercises. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-gYqA6M4bRCA.html
Here is a variation I came across that some might find even easier: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zNfzRPZKB8Y.html I think the variation I linked is slightly less stable but the trade-off is it may require slightly less strength. I imagine both versions are worth trying to see which is best for the individual.
I can’t believe I was able to stand! I have two bad knees and I would never sit on the ground because it hurt too much to get up. Thank you so much for this video!! 🙏🏼🫶🏻🌻
