You spend far more of your life in a one-leg stance than you could imagine – 40% of your walk is spent on one leg, but that’s not the only reason why standing on one leg is more important than you might think. It has been shown that how well you can stand on one leg can be a powerful predictor of how long you will live and how healthy you will be. In 1999, researchers did three simple tests on 2,760 men and women in their 50s. They measured grip, counted how often they could stand upright from sitting in a minute, and timed how long the volunteers could stand on one leg with their eyes closed.
When they revisited the people 13 years later, they found performance in all three tests was a predictor of how likely it was a person would die from cancer or a heart attack. But the one-legged standing test came out on top. Those who stood for two seconds or less on the earlier test were three times more likely to have died over the next 13 years than those who managed ten seconds or more. So it might be time to get working on that balance if you want to keep active well into old age!

以前我做不了2-3秒，后来练了负重深蹲，一分钟以上很容易。
这种预测寿命的方法，只要平时稍微练练，结果就能大幅度提高。听着很不靠谱。
开玩笑吧？
曾经看了中里巴人的系列视频，练了一段时间的闭眼金鸡独立，曾经可以到两分钟，或者更长时间
不动坚持不了10秒，动的话有时可以磨蹭1分钟以上：）。
肿快消完了，还痛，但昨天已经完全从猿进化到了人，直立行走啦
然后就上下午都去狠狠地逛了几家店，顺便去一家所谓的川菜馆狠狠地点外卖犒劳自己
今天还准备出去狠狠地逛一个花店，不过，都是慢慢走，痛可能还要持续一段时间吧
下周要上班了
