The Sit-Squat-Stand Fitness Test: What You Need to Know.

The Sit-Squat-Stand fitness test, currently going viral on TikTok, measures mobility rather than fitness levels, according to physical therapist Jacob VanDenMeerendonk. The test involves crossing arms in front of the body, placing each hand on the opposite shoulder, and lowering oneself into a seated position before rising again without using hands. Passing the test indicates great lower body mobility, body control, core strength, and balance, which can help reduce lower back pain, prevent injury, and improve movement levels.
