How and why to practice the Barry get-up exercise | Peter Attia

[@hammockmonk]

I'm 61 and athletic but I've started doing daily floor to standing hands-free exercises to preserve my ability to do this. Thanks!

[@mackinacisland3825]

I'm 66. I do the same. I do a lot of yoga.

[@Circus1990]

I do next to nothing, but will start.

[@txgrandma3]

This is such great advice. As a 66 yo who started working out with weights this calendar year because I could feel the decline, I can say it’s not too late. Take it slow but just keep working toward the goal. I can now drop to the floor & get myself back up to standing. Sometimes I need to use the floor but I am working to do it without that. The longer you wait, the more difficult it’s going to be. Move! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@SlicedSlappy]

As a 67 yo I agree.

[@suzanneballantyne8494]

Bravo!

[@meeek21]

Nice, be sure to do it to both sides.

You don't know me Mr Attia, but you inspired me to excercise every day - noone could do that for 31 years of my life. Always hated any kind of movement. Being a fat kid, fat teenager isn't pleasant. Now I'm 35 kg (about 70 pounds) lighter after a year of Rybelsus (Semaglutide) and 6 months of excercise in zone 2 thanks to your podcasts. I excercise since Christmas and can't even begin to describe how great I feel. Muscles got bigger, fat melted away. I ruck, I do zone 2 on stationary bike while listening to your podcasts, I walk 5 days a week, I practice balance movements etc. It's awesome. I was even able to build muscle while on semaglutide thanks to your short on KZbin related to rapid muscle loss in patients on that drug. I hope you never feel doubt about your work, cuz you shouldn't. Thank you. Sorry for my grammar, not an American :)

Totally agree about doing the exercise with an older person. But lifting weights say on a bench ,legs. And hip exercises is enough to give you the power to rise. But you have to do the work

[@shawnb2bfitness]

Beth is demonstrating some significant leg strength here! I had my own idea of a get-up-from-floor exercise I was going to include in an exercise program I was developing, and I came across this. When I went to try it on my own, I realized that this is no joke to do without hands! I'm a personal trainer and I do 200 lunges every week, but this move without hands made me feel like a beginner, lol. Good stuff!

[@RomanesEuntDomus.]

200 lunges a week and can't do this??? 😂😂😂😂 Ok grandma

[@littlebeirutproperties4240]

I'm about to turn 70 and have been doing this for several months. Prior to learning this move, I was doing the stand from one knee down on a foil board. Add an unstable base (a board floating on water) to this portion of the Barry get-up and you have a true level 4 challenge. Though it wasn't touched upon here, it is important to practice this from both sides.

[@playpianotoday6223]

I’m so happy!! I could do this straight away with no hands (I tried before getting to the end of the video and seeing Peter’s warning about warming up). I’m 66! 😊

[@Ladynipchick2]

And I'm going to bet you've got slim legs. Am I right? I find many people with bigger legs find this hard to do.

[@annarepetto2430]

During a break while mountain biking, my husband stood straight up from sitting cross legged on the ground when he sustained a bucket handle meniscus tear. It was a loud pop! He was 62 at the time. He has managed to avoid surgery, so far, but he has adopted mobility movements into his workouts, like this exercise, to avoid it happening again. Thanks for this content!

[@robertphillips93]

At 73, I've been getting up off the floor every morning for a couple of years now. Definitely a "hands-aided" version but no other support. Glad to hear Peter's warning about being properly flexible and warmed up for the full version! The step-up exercise seems to be a good complement for the "get up Barry"

[@michellewood1419]

Wanted to thank you today. I've been so close to being able to do this for about a week. I have bone on bone OA in both knees and one that is prone to dislocate😊 upon muscle stress, but today I cautiously went for it. I was careful of my form and used my hands. I did it🎉

[@eeltenaj19]

Awesome! Way to go!

[@monicamestas7566]

As a 68-year-old woman, I'm more flexible than most and 20 years ago was a pretty good yogi ;) I think in addition to relearning how to get off the floor (including your move) part of the problem is middle mass :( It feels like my belly "hinders," shall I say, my getting into the proper positions (and I'm not huge). The last few years, I end up on all fours before I'm vertical. A really embarrassing time was trying to get off a curb at my grandson's parade. I was there alone and couldn't bring myself to ask for help, so waited till almost everyone was gone. Can't have that happen again. I will be working on this! Thank you!

[@gwae48]

thnx for the warning😲 CALL FOR HELP !!!!

[@Lovejoypeace69]

It’s so wonderful I ran into this video. I’m a healthy 58-year-old and I exercise and keep myself very healthy. And I was getting off the floor the other day not feeling very elegant or graceful and this is going to help so very much. Thank you.

[@breakdown6181]

A much simpler way to get up:assume position with hands and knees on floor.Pull one leg up under you,place hands on that knee and push up.Practice going up and down on that one leg.Then switch legs.These are called. HALF SQUATS,used in getting back up on ice,or skating in quad skates.Wonderful stretch for the back,you can feel it.

[@waffles1ca]

I love this exercise, START EARLY, I remember reading notes from a doctor from India, he discovered that older patients who could not stand without the use of hands had a life expectancy of 6 years…

[@johnpecoraro3168]

This is very good information and accurately demonstrates the proper flow. I am a 75 year young retired strength and conditioning coach for over 45 years. I am still actively exercising and in my opinion, these two know what they are doing and are able to clearly communicate the proper sequence to the movement. Great job!!

[@Kiaramod]

Very well explained! I broke my ankle in May of this year and I'm still working on gaining leg strength by doing squats and hip mobility excercises. I also work on my ankle mobility and foot strength. I am going to incorporate this into my training routine, because I think it is essential to work on the ability to be able to get up and sit on the floor without help. I hope to be able to do it in the future! I am 55 years old and doing squats throughout the day (in sets of 20 repetitions) is restoring my strength and helping my balance. I can perform 100 squats for now. When I feel I’m ready, I’ll try this. Thanks for this video!

[@happy777abc]

Hi! Please look into bone building exercises. The muscle can only grow based on our bone strength. Please look up Bio Strong studios and see if you can mimic any of those at home. Short,( 10+15 seconds) intense pressure for bone building. All the best:) Blessings

It’d be great to show you teach an elderly person. I cannot imagine my mom being able to do this. Thank you, I myself will do this exercise (57)

[@ichaffee1]

Yes I am in my 70 s and I can't get up of the floor..I can't do what she's showing

[@kanamasai5194]

I agree with both @lseh4720 & @ichaffee1 . I do not want to take anything away from the great work that is intended by this video. A) When anyone is thinking of movement techniques for an elderly person ( person with mobility difficulties). First - wear thick gardening gloves (preferably 2 pairs) - swaddle your elbows, knees, neck & ankle by wrapping towels. - tie 2 pillows on your midsection. - wear tinted goggles. This is the situation elderly people are facing. Now try whatever exercise you have planned. As Dr Attia says " ...this is an advanced move ..." by practicing and trying you've done a great thing. Keep up the good work, I appreciate and enjoy the videos. 😃

[@joyhavner3772]

Thank you Beth and Peter. We watched, warmed up, then practiced aspects of Barry's get up today in our neighborhood move group. Ages in the group are 51-88 and the get up is a goal for us.

[@molimo70]

Very nice. I try to do this….. I am flexible for a 190 pound woman, but it’s hard to get my butt around (& I’ve been practicing yoga for 10 years, have a knee replacement and some foot surgery). It would be nice if they showed one of these videos for 70 year old, mature-sized people, on slippery floors. That is my situation!

[@speaknup8009]

Now do this for more typical conditions of seniors needing to get up off the floor. Typical limitations such as for those who cannot tolerate putting weight on their knees because of previous knee replacement surgery, for those lacking the necessary leg strength to be able to push up to standing with just one leg, or for those lacking the necessary flexibility. Also, the balance point for males is different than for females.

[@natefalck5331]

That's what makes it an exercise. You work toward this bit by bit to build up the necessary leg strength and flexibility.

[@Automation_Control_Tuning]

Managed it straight into no hands, but noticed a significant difference from left leg forward to right! I expected a certain level of asymmetry, but not that much. Great exercise, thank you.

[@magdapatriciaromerorimoldi5751]

Once this ability of not needing your hands for standing up from the floor, literally saved my life, I was walking very quickly in the streets with my hands on my jacket, when I stepped in a hole 🕳 and I was about to crash my face in the concrete, when I did the stepping up without hands very quickly, like four times in a row till I was tottaly straight without my hands, I was 57 years old by then, I recommend to practice it daily.

[@ST-pp3fk]

[@garysapper8716]

At 75, I employ a "hip heist", a wrestler's move I learned from Coach Alitz at West Point in 1968. From seated position, swing either knee under while supporting torso with diagonally opposite foot and hand. Now on all fours rock back to heels and push to stand up. If you have week knees and quads, you can still get up off the floor.

[@thefpvlife7785]

Why do I feel alive when I watch you two work together to help better our health.

[@AceManifold]

Thanks, that's a cool way of getting up. And I especially liked peter's saying not to do it cold. I am 78 and recovered from spinal stenosis surgery and various (hip, knee) replacements. Since I do a lot of physical therapy exercises, I put them in a certain order. Starting flat on my back, I do some things (baby pose, bridge . . .), and then I get up. By that time, I am warmed up a little and it's easier than it would have been if I had done it cold. Anyway, I get back again and do some other stuff. My point is that it is useful to put the exercises in a certain order, and then you can also remember them easier. By the way, if you ever get too proud of your up and down techniques, try watching Japanese people (like in Samurai movies). It's not even a thing for them.

[@DieFlabbergast]

Yep, and there's nothing unique about the Japanese. I've been living in Japan for 47 years and I can still get up off the floor as easily as the average Japanese person and easier than many, who use armchairs and sofas and suchlike Western furniture in their homes. Our house is Japanese style, so we get plenty of practice.

[@storykeeper8684]

We learned this drop and spin in modern dance when I was a teenager in the 1970s. I used to easily do it. Now, I find getting up off the floor difficult. Thanks for the reminder I have muscle memory to practice with.

[@toshifumikato477]

I learned a similar move in my Brazilian jiu-jitsu class. Some years later, I taught a similar move to my father who suffered a stroke and lost his speech, right arm mobility, partially right leg mobility. It was his daily routine to do this stand-up three times a day. It helped him get up on his feet on his own when he fell on the floor. My mother told me it was the most helpful thing for my father to learn because he was too heavy for her to pull him on his feet when he fell down on the floor.

[@williamfleckles]

I'm 73 and counting. So simple! Thank you!

[@carrollguenhart9468]

This is brilliant! I'm 71 and I will start doing this.

[@dawnkoenitzer178]

I use this as part of a DNF sequence for rehabilitation and I initially learned the first part of this transitional move as " The eleven month step through." This gets us from long sitting on the floor to kneeling on one knee. The rest of the transition to full standing comes after 12 months. It's fascinating to watch babies and toddlers effortlessly pull this off as their core strength improves.

[@alisutherland1103]

This is interesting. They teach this in the Army during basic.

THANK YOU I have never been able to figure out the mechanics of this move. My daughter says its the only way to sit down with a sleeping baby in her arms. Raising children I didn't know it was even a possibility. This is something I want to learn to do for when i have great grandchildren

[@DieFlabbergast]

This made me feel very good about myself. At 74 years old, I could do this -- with just a bit of effort -- with no hands. But I have to admit, it's easier for me than for most people because I live in Japan, and have done for 47 years. We have a Japanese-style living room, where we sit on the floor (with flat cushions), and my futon in the bedroom is also on the floor. So sitting cross-legged, or sitting on your knees Japanese style, and getting up off the floor, are all part of the daily routine. I sit on an office chair in front of my PC, but otherwise it's "life on the floor."

What I really love about Peter and Beth is that they are re defining what “fit” really means. No need to be at 6% fat. It’s ok to have some belly fat. They don’t always look as lean. It’s ok to go through multiple training phases during the year. Still: insanely strong, a lot of muscle, full mobility, and excellent cardiovascular health

[@mbrochh82]

Peter, are you going to create a full workout plan that covers all the exercises that you listed as essential in your book? I'm sure a lot of people would be willing to pay for access to such a resource. These short KZbin videos are nice, but in the end they leave us all uncertain as to which exercises we should really do, how often, how many reps etc etc.

[@MOWFWDU]

I was just watching a bunch of "older people need to able to get up like this" videos. Some of them are ridiculous - young folks with plenty of strength showing really hard moves. Although this one is also hard, it makes some sense and I think it's attainable for folks who have lost the ability to stand without using a hand. It's progressive, they might not end up being able to do it without using a hand, but they will certainly gain strength and agility by practicing it. I like the 2 leg squat which is easy, but some people can't drop to the haunches anymore so, this is an alternative, but it does require flexibility, a lot of power from one leg and lots of coordination. As Peter says it's an advanced move and not really for your average older folks trying to find a way to get up off the floor.

[@Irin31]

You should start** the video with saying that it requires prior warm up! So people would not try to follow you while you are showing it without the preparation. Essential!

[@miketonner3094]

If you are sitting on the floor , in real world, you won't have a warm up session before you get up.

To get up if right handed , twist right leg out external rotation to right , left leg twisted in towards right then fix left knee on ground push up and forwards stand on both knees then stand , you see right leg and left leg towards right . Do the opposite if left handed . Good luck . Slow take time baby steps

[@Cloudwisp11]

I think you need to be working with seniors more! Even their balance would affect this initial “get up” ability. Show properly with seniors of different levels - not with yourself.

At 02:49, Peter advises caution to *only* practice this after warming up well, highlighting injury risk for the meniscus. Let me doubly recommend that, and caution, and going very slowly! I am a highly active recreational athlete with a regular balance and mobility routine, amongst other things. I tried this for the first time and strained (luckily, just a strain) my meniscus, limiting my movement for several days. Sharing to encourage you to go slowly and carefully! Be safe 🙂

[@martinh5402]

These are great movement patterns to learn, thanks Beth & Peter for showing the step wise execution of it to make life easier. Also Peter, I would suggest that it assumes you have healthy hips as it requires internal femoral rotation and > 90 degree Illeo-femoral flexion. I have one resurfaced hip (but still get wicked FAI) and the other requiring resurfacing, not sure if that's common by 60 but I avoid getting on the ground at all costs LOL!

[@hokiedevil]

The biggest need for older adults is the capability to get back up after falling. My mother is in great shape and I still push her to practice something similar daily. The other thing that I preach is fixing posture. Especially with the amount of sitting that retirees end up doing, upper back posture can be an issue that grows and spirals out of control later in life

[@gracerichter926]

As a physical therapist that works only with seniors, i see it everyday, how only a tiny percent of them can get up off the floor even using both hands for support. I teach a lot of fall recovery and too many things get in the way of them performing each step, mainly ROM, pain, strength, balance, fear. I can take weeks of working on this task along with strengthening for them to accomplish getting up. This Barry move would have to start years before they get to the age of falling.

[@deborahsmith6975]

OK I'm going to start practicing. Thank you!

[@hel1copter]

This is a really useful manoeuvre, because for an older person getting up off the floor can be difficult. Someone has suggested demonstrating with a physically challenged subject. If you do, may I suggest you have them wear normal clothing? Not many people fall over in leggings or shorts, and regular trousers can hamper what little flexibility remains.

[@alanmatthews9260]

I’ve had lifelong tendonosis in both knees and now at 59 MY knees hurt watching this lol - I’m physically able to do almost anything I want to do except that. When I need to get up and down off the floor I use my upper body and arms a lot.

I’ve been in PT for about six weeks and doing well. I was active bodyboarding and mountain biking, and then all came to a halt several months ago. I continue to do hikes, but they weren’t consistent, maybe once a week. I am now driven to be active again. I’m 67, 5‘5“, 116 pounds.

She doesn't get it. The real problem is not the initial part that she says it is, it's the last part where I'm trying to stand up. Somebody with old, aching knees cannot do it without the support of at least one arm.

[@fc4660]

Building muscle strength in the core and legs (and thereby the knees) will help that. Start out easy, there’s plenty here on KZbin to help you but if you can go to a local physiotherapist for a session or two it will help you

I can see curtsy lunges / squats being a really good regression exercise for this, for people that can't get the movement down and to get used to having the abductors eccentrically loaded, although like what is mentioned in the video, if you do a curtsy lunge / squat the wrong way, it puts a lot of valgus forces on the stance knee and is not good for the MCL / knee.

Although I will improve with a few of your tweaks. lol. Curling the toes is hard for me. But if I have shoes on it helps.

Hands and knees. Simultaneously walkk hands in and go to tors keeping knees slightly bent. Walk hands in leaning back now and stand up
