everyone's body is different, so how everyone goes down and gets up will vary. it's the same principle with squatting. i have to lean forward when i squat, while others can stand straight up and don't have to point their toes out, etc. i'm surprised jeff didn't mention this, as he has a video discussing the different types of femurs in the human body and what forces us to have different squatting techniques. i can do this challenge, just not exactly how jeff does it. i have to go down and sit on my feet and then raise back up. i think that's sufficient. i don't think you have to sit completely on your ass. just my opinion

I'm 17 I did it with only one year of training, yea I sorta stumbled a bit when I got up, but I still did it.
I know I'm still a beginner, and without money for trainers, I've been working inconsistently for a year, and onto just begun the religious regime for training. I did it 3 times, and now am thinking that I need more diligent focus towards my training. I am only 17 but I feel like I have so long and so far to go.
Thanks Jeff for giving me advice and making these videos so that I can educate myself further.

Walk now everyday so that you can walk later, instead of giving the lame excuse well i'm getting old.
If you walk today you'll walk later in life. Walk one mile out and one mile back everyday. You'll grow in strength, exceedingly. I was wondering if you really held to The Truth back in exercise. -WE are Sanctified by The Truth. Your Word Yahweh is The Truth. - So, putting a Biblical perspective back into exercising/daily life would be putting truth back into exercising.

I could do this instantly without any problem what so ever and I consider myself to be BAD at caring for my back and legs. And I was so astounded, then you mentioned that it SHOULD be easy and man you are so right. Made me feel good still, but in another way. Made me feel proud that without WORKING OUT everyday, I am NOT the standard I used to be: Sit at your desk/sofa all day and then wonder why the frick your body hurts. Good video as always, love ya man!

love it man. jeff, idk if u will see this msg, but you are truly an inspiration. an very good point about ppl 2 many times allowing others 2 set the -standard limits- of wat we can an cannot do jus because of a silly number being our age. I believe highly in the mind being an -engine-, if u will. that drives the rest of our body. its amazing wat we can accomplish if we truly set out 2 do something. if u believe in urself an give it 100%, we can do anything!

Only excuse, for some of you, is this -might- have something to do with bone structure. I'm 43 Team Athlean X Elite member. When I started Athlean x I thought I had a balanced body composition (ran, biked, lifted weights, ran obstacle courses, prior military, yada, yada. NOT! I found myself suffering from SI joint joint pain after the 3rd week. Once that healed I was I 2x as strong in my hips, glutes, core. Yes I can do this exercise!

I am 40-and this made me depressed. I walk everyday but I can-t do this without rolling over. I am
So depressed I just feel so far gone. when I was 27 I was so athletic. Now I feel stuck literally on the floor. I am straining to stand up but can-t unless i roll over on all fours. I guess the 60lb gain in 13 years has something to do with it. What happened my habits are the same? I eat better now then when I was 27

+ATHLEAN-X- i couldn't do it. i am 22 y/o, lean, fittest physique among my friends, can squat 125 kg(275 lbs)considerably flexible and i am very good with balance. And no, not a wake up call for me. I think this is a no brainer like licking your elbow. Some people can do it, some people can't. It is not a fitness test, it only tests if you can cross your feet and stand up.

I just did it. I'm 250lbs out of shape (mostly) 6 feet tall.
Try modifying your legs to be more horizontal when you push up with the outsides of your feet. I had to make the modification to get it to work because I have a tummy.
But it works. The whole test said you couldn't have your knee, shin, or hands touch the ground at any time.
It works. Try it. =)

This is complete nonsense) Comparison with children in this -test- is inappropriate. He stretches his arms forward to maintain balance. It will be difficult for people with a developed back hip to stand up, but this does not mean that they will live less than people with different body proportions. In general, this is a useless and traumatic -test-
