Practice THIS to stand up from low surfaces with ease

- 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 😍
If you’re looking for more ways to strengthen so daily life becomes easier and the doors to adventures open with osteoarthritis- head to the link in my profile or go to keeptheadventurealive.com/start to get started ‼️

Not medical advice. Try at your own risk.
I love the way you not only tell us the WHY we can't do something - the quads need to work harder when the knee is at this advanced angle but you tell us what to do to fix it, at varying levels. I find that being told helps me realise that I'm not broken AND that the easy level I have to start at will be just temporary, just until I am stronger. A HUGE Thankyou from Australia.
Yes this is exactly right!
love how you present with no extra
time and clear explanations. Also, thank you for speaking to us as if we’re intelligent. Some just act as if we’re children. Very refreshing to watch and listen to your instructions.
I appreciate that!

The low toilet is a huge issue... thanks for addressing this topic ❤
You are so welcome!
Thank you 😊 I've been disabled for 30 years getting older now 61 this is a great exercise goal. It may take awhile for me to accomplish the correct standing but now it's my goal.
You got it!
😎 SS 71-year-old disabled person I'm going to try that I think the standing and sitting is what I need most it's scary when you fall
Broke my heel 2 years ago, lost muscle mass, didn't realize it until recently. This is just what I needed to see - no gym required to improve! THX!🔥👍🙂
I have these problems because I never took the steps to develop legs like you have! Wish I would have!
Thank you for showing us what strong legs are and the effort it takes to get them there
Thank you for sharing this!
Of course!
You are amazing 👏 🎉I thank God for you 🙏🏼 ❤️
Thank you so much for the kind words!
I'm 39 and have seen the arthritis in an MRI of my knee ....
Your videos are the first I've seen that really help so that i can still enjoy a good walk.
Thank you so much.
I am 61 broke my ankle last year and despite being very active up until then, I had to sit around a lot and keep my weight off it and omg my opposite knee has took the strain and I can't believe how much muscle strength I have lost and find getting up off low seats difficult!!! 😮 I am going to put your leg strengthening exercises in to a routine for daily practice because I am absolutely desperate to get my muscle strength back, I have also had repeated ankle strains so I need to strengthen those too. I used to be a runner and fitness fanatic and ride horses too. Thank you so much for your advice. 😊
Love your Channel!
Thank you for These good exercises!
👍😊
you're welcome!
It also helps to get your knees spread shoulder, width, or further apart
Thanks a ton for sharing this vital information as I am struggling after my patella fracture surgery
I have been watching your shots as well as your videos posted on net and I feel that you have quite a deep knowledge about physiotherapy and I seriously watch your videos thanks a lot again
Happy to hear you like the videos!
Is a preschool teacher stumbling on this, it's interesting. I am sometimes sitting on a kids chair for prolonged amounts of time, and getting up can be difficult. I will try this!
hope it helps!
Yes... This is me. I struggle to get up. Especially with bone on bone knee pain.
That is really very helpful, thank you🤗
Welcome!
Yes, this has been a problem for me. Thank you again for the valuable information. All of your posts are no nonsense and extremely valuable for people like me. You rock. Kudos to you. Sincerely R
You are very welcome
This is the guidance I needed the most!!!😊thank you
You are so welcome
@@arthritisadventure 🙏
You are so right but you are young looks easy but when you start getting older that is where the problem comes I have been working on that but every time I sit down wherever I have to remember to do it the way you are teaching thank you you are helping lots of people thank you blessings
This definitely works. My mom had great success with this exercise. Thx Dr Alyssa😊
So great to hear! Glad she's seeing success.
Yep. Been using a toilet extender since November 2022. Now I’m doing “sit to stand” and squats and I use that same blue AIREX pad. Sometimes 2 of them. Public toilets are too low.
I’ve been taught a few different ways actually - leaning forward - sliding your hands down your thigh - like you’re playing shortstop and stand up. But sometimes - I can’t and go right back down - so I guess in a sense - I’m doing the “partial sit to stand” haha.
If you lift the level of the seat, remember to use a small step to put your feet up while defecating, trying to defecate sitting rather than squatting makes it harder.
@@Misslotusification Squatty Potty?
@@nostalgiaman6816 Yes, that's the name of it, Squatty Potty indeed.
Thank you for reminding me. You’re a fantastic help!
You're welcome!
Thank you sooo much ❤
Any time!
TOTALLY! I can get up from most things, can get down no problem, but if I go onto a short stool or the floor, I have to manoeuvre around until I can haul or be hauled up again. Mine seems to come from my hips though, the front of the hip bone specifically across the lower abdomen. My knees are fine.
Yes, I needed this!! Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thankyou for this video I have difficulty in standing up after going to toilet
You're welcome! Keep up the great work progressing on getting up from the toilet.
Great advice. Gives us older folk hope for a better life. Thank you 👍
You are so welcome! You got this.
Alyssa you are so awesome, I learned from you these days more then 13 tome physiotherapy. My left knee is not good , and right one total knee replacement. Lower seat really kills me
Standing up from a chair was one of the tests my physical therapist would do to see if I was getting better.
How do you practice standing up from a kneeling position, or squat? I get stuck halfway up
Oh this is brilliant thank you for this
You're very welcome

Many thanks for your guidance. May I ask you if you would like to give some recommendations to help or cure the problems with pain in the lower back area and release the nerve causing… I would be very grateful with any advice, sincerely C.M.
I am going to be hitting you up for info in the future. I blew out my ankle and will need plates. I had gotten my bad knees to function much better until this happened.
The channel will be here when you're ready.

Thanks for sharing. ❤
You are so welcome
What brand are your clothes. These and the pants plus top in short video of three quick ways to relieve (standing at counter) look so comfy. Thx! I use this move and it helps. Not easy.
I am 5’9’ tall and I find it can be challenging trying to get up from a too low of a position. The shorter you are, the less difficult it is to stand from a lower position.
I love your videos
So glad to hear!
Thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊
Greay idea!!! Thanks!
absolutely!
I have bad knees and arthritis in my knees, that's why I struggle with getting up from a seated position.

Progressive underload :)
Having a knee bone on bone unstable is tricky.
My thighs are flabby & weak above the knee.. is there any strengthening exercises you can show us to firm them up?
This is the perfect thigh strengthening exercise 🙌🏼
Getting up from ground. Plz guide.
Low seats are EASIER for me....maybe because I have short legs. All I need to do is make sure the weight of my torso is completely over my legs. My legs do get tired doing it multiple times in a row, though... I was doing it whole I am typing! lol😮
My knee locks in place sometimes. Hurts so bad.
My left knee joint turns inward due to years of scoliosis. Every exercise I do to strengthen my legs hurts my knee.

Excelllent
Yep!
Aren't those squats? Do you recommend squats with knee arthritis? I'm just simply asking, not being ironic. I've just found your channel and really do enjoy the simplicity and kindness of the presentation.
squats are not inherently dangerous with knee arthritis and are necessary for daily life. If they don't feel good to you, it is imperative to modify by using a higher surface or upper body support to reduce pain levels
@@arthritisadventure thank you! 🌹
Hurts my knees. Quads and hamstrings seem strong enough but knees make this tough
What about getting up from the Eastern Toilet position. ???.
I just use my underwear instead of a band 😂
Mam if I practice this,then after few days or month can I able to do from lower sitting position ?
Having problems climbing g stairs
I have trouble standing up off the floor
This is really an issue..getting up from low seats. Thank you. A query...Will this be okay if knees are painful?
If experiencing significant pain it may indicate need for modification. If it’s minimal or minor pain- it could be the joints getting used to it.
Thank you so much. Am really loving your exercises..as they do not put a strain on my legs. Love doing them.🙏
my front leg muscled do not work since about 2008
Got a high rise to toilet
