Those low surfaces 😖
It is so common, especially with arthritis to have difficulty standing up from lower surfaces like toilets, lower couches and chairs 🪑
One of the reasons for this is the degree of strength it requires from your thighs primarily ☝🏽
One of the best ways to master standing from lower surfaces is to simply practice. But you have to do it in a way that sets you up for success ✅
There are many other ways to help strengthen the thigh muscles (quadriceps) as well. But if you can get into the habit of practicing 10 repetitions of these everyday- standing from lower surfaces will become easier 💪🏽
Keep working to lower surfaces as you feel more confident and are less reliant on your arms 🙌🏼
Many members of Adventurers for Life- my arthritis workout membership- are tackling lower surfaces with ease due to the extensive strength they’ve built up in the right areas 😍
