How To Get Up From The Floor Without Knee Pain (No kneeling required)

[@suewright1299]

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.

You're welcome. Glad it was helpful!

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!! 🙏🏼🫶🏻🌻

You're welcome.

It's interesting that there should be some quick movement involved to help . I'll also try the half lunge to compare. Thank you for the technique.

[@More4Life]

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.

@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!

Thank you! I dislocated my knee recently and have been sad not to be able to sit on the floor with my daughter, especially at the beach!

[@More4Life]

You're welcome. Good luck with your recovery!

[@LorisBenedict]

Unfortunately excess weight can make this technique difficult if not impossible.

[@More4Life]

That is true. It's not for everyone. Excess weight can make a lot of things more difficult.

Y me dirías po favor como después de caer a lo largo puedo sentarme?

THATS GREAT IF YOUR STILL YOUNG!

If this one didn't work for you here are a few other options: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWO7eKiGhKt_iKM

How do I get up I have foot drop on my right foot

[@More4Life]

Kneeling may be your better option in that case. Here's a video on foot drop exercises. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYrUcmmDaceFeaM

Thank you so much

Easy when you have huge muscles. Elderly old bods like me have lost much of my muscle strength.

[@More4Life]

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. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWO7eKiGhKt_iKM

[@EricRubinPK]

Here is a variation I came across that some might find even easier: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sH_Jq4WGj7B1brs 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.

Thanks for sharing.
