Instructions on how to check your health at home

According to Times of India, if climbing 2 floors of stairs without breathing or fatigue, your health is relatively stable.

Going 500m for 6 minutes is also a sign of healthy heart.Only walking less than 200m in 6 minutes, you are unwell and should see a doctor.Approximately 200-500m distance is also available during this time, so you should go to a doctor to prevent the risk of illness.

To check the back thigh muscles, lay your back straight and slowly lift your leg.If the back thigh is flexible, you can easily create a 90 degree angle.Check your thigh muscles first by sitting on your knees, your right heel reaching your hips.

To know that the shoulder muscles have enough flexibility, you stand so that your back and neck are in a straight line, your left hand is crossed and you have to use your right hand to pull more.If you can keep this posture without trying, your shoulder muscles are completely normal.

The best way to test muscle strength is through push-ups and planks.If you can do 10-20 times in a row, your muscles are nothing to worry about.

Dr. Santosh Kumar Agarwal from Kailash Hospital (India) suggests examining the calf muscles by jumping upwards.Before jumping, place your hand on the wall to get the landmark.Men who jump to the wall higher than the 72 cm mark are great, 60-72cm is very good, 50-60cm is average, under 20cm is very bad.Subtracting 10cm from these milestones will be standard for women.

For men, the fat rate accounts for 18-24% of the body and this figure for women is 15-18%.To know if you have excess fat, you pinch one side of your waist, upper arm or thigh.If the pinch is more than 5cm, your body fat is more than necessary.

If you can hold your breath for 30 seconds to a minute, your lungs are working normally.
