    Forget the gym: A 30-second test may be one of the best indicators of longevity

    A 30-second chair stand test is highlighted as a key indicator of lower-body strength, mobility, and fall risk in aging adults. The test, endorsed by the CDC's STEADI program and fitness experts, measures functional fitness and is linked to longevity. It requires minimal equipment and is accessible for home use, though precautions are advised for individuals with health concerns.
