Episode Description from the Publisher

In episode 83 of The Physio Diaries podcast, Mel& Al talk about the 10 vital signs that you never think about. We see hundreds of patients walk through our clinic doors and we can tell a lot about someone's health before they even sit down. They are spilling everything: the 10 functional markers they actually use to assess health that go way beyond your standard blood pressure and heart rate check. From grip strength (spoiler: low grip strength is linked to a 67% higher risk of early death) to whether you can get up off the floor without grabbing the furniture, these are the real-world tests that predict longevity, mobility, and quality of life at every age.
