Number You Won’t Forget: 10 Seconds
Many tests — from strength to VO2 max — are designed to assess longevity. But one test in particular requires no equipment whatsoever, and could highlight areas needed for improvement.
Researchers found that a simple 10-second balance test could be one signal of your long-term health and is linked to a higher risk of early death
Scientists studied more than 1,700 adults and found that poor balance was strongly associated with all-cause mortality over the next 7 years. The test was pass/fail: you either held it for the full 10 seconds or you didn't.
