This powerful predictor of longevity isn’t what you think
The single leg balance test is considered a leading indicator of neuromuscular aging, says a 2024 Mayo Clinic study.
“The duration an individual, whether male or female, can maintain balance on one leg,” it concluded, “emerges as the most reliable determinant of aging, surpassing strength, gait, and other balance parameters.

Why balance is a predictor of longevity and healthy aging
Move over strength and cardio, researchers reveal why balance is the missing piece in healthy aging — and how simple daily movements can lower your risk of injury.

Beim Versuch, mich im Internet über gute Fahrradschlösser zu informieren, bin ich evt. wahnsinnig geworden.
Dass viele vorgebliche Tests nur Amazon-Linkfarmen sind, wusste ich ja schon. Dass man diese Pseudo-Tests inzwischen auch auf ehemals reputablen Domains echter Massenmedien wie Focus, Welt und Stern findet, ist traurig, war mir aber auch bekannt.
