@mir123 I second the mild stretching! Some days I can get on the floor and do 20 minutes of gentle yoga. Sometimes I just do balancing holding on to the back of a chair for a few minutes. I do practice getting up off the floor on my own power every day. It's not pretty, but I can do it.

@nohrt4me I was charmed to hear you get up off the floor every day, because I practice it daily as well! I don't want to fall and be unable to get up because I haven't kept those muscles in shape. It's also good as I have a 6 year old grand daughter. I often use a cane when walking, but getting up is unaided. I'm glad though that I don't have an audience!
