Rhonda Pulte on LinkedIn: How to Reupholster a Chair (2024)

Getting out of a chair can be very difficult for some folks. Leg strength plays such an important role for standing, mobility and balance. I am constantly announcing to every client and every class that "leg strength is like gold, protect your investment!" Getting out of a chair can also depend on the type of chair, as some are lower than others or the cushions of the chair seem to just grab you and suck you into it. Some chairs are so low that the task becomes even more challenging for those who struggle normally. But with great leg strength and proper leverage, you or a loved one should be able to pop right up out of the vast majority of any chair type and go!Learn the proper position and exercises needed to help you get out of a chair.https://lnkd.in/ew3P3USp

Often overlooked, hip strength can influence not only postural stability but also reduce the risk of lower back pain while generally maximizing leg mobility. Lunge Walk Test: Start with your feet shoulder width apart. Bring one leg forward into a walking lunge, and come back up. Alternate each leg for about 4 steps. (https://lnkd.in/gDCuSf3p)If your knee caves in as you lunge down or if your knee is unstable then that may indicate weakness in your hip abductors such as the glute medius/minimus. In that case, continue with our Hip Progression pathway at https://lnkd.in/g7ViVKuZ#running #runningcommunity #runningcoach #coaching #physicalhealth #physicalfitness #physicaltherapy
