Thanks for posting! Mine is set up like yours. The question I have is that if you loosen up the knobs, does it rotate upwards (see arrow)? The slots make me think it should, but mine won't budge.

Yes. Mine does. But I do believe it’s all a bit too tight of a fit. A little file work should solve that. I do have to force things a bit to fit.
To me, I think those slots could have some taper to them and not defeat the intent….as long as the bottom of the slot is retained.

The issue on mine, is that the square tubing right underneath the pivot pins dig into the tank if I try to rotate upwards. I may have to get the grinder out and round off the bottom of those tubes.

You likely have a good solution. Mine has not been bad enough to mess with yet. But it’s on the list. A little radius on that tube might be a great solution.

What is the biological phenomenon responsible for the gradual loss of muscle mass, strength, and function as we age? This is known as Sarcopenia!
Sarcopenia refers to the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength due to aging. The impact of this condition can be severe, depending on the individual.
How to prevent Sarcopenia?
Stay Active: If you can stand, don’t sit—if you can sit, don’t lie down! Movement is key to preventing muscle loss.
Encourage Movement in the Elderly: When an elderly person is sick or hospitalized, avoid encouraging them to rest or remain in bed. Help them walk, unless they are too weak to do so. Lying in bed for just a week can cause a 5% loss in muscle mass, and seniors often cannot fully recover this loss.
Sarcopenia is more concerning than osteoporosis: With osteoporosis, the primary risk is falling, but sarcopenia not only affects quality of life but also contributes to high blood sugar due to reduced muscle mass.
Idle muscles lead to faster muscle loss: Muscles in the legs deteriorate quickly when not used. Sitting or lying down limits leg movement, weakening muscles. Activities like walking, running, and cycling are excellent ways to build and maintain muscle mass.
Aging Starts from the Feet Up! Keep your legs active and strong as you age. If you don’t move your legs for just two weeks, you’ll lose the strength of a decade! Regular exercises like walking and cycling are vital for maintaining muscle strength.
The feet support the entire body’s weight, making them critical for mobility. So, walk every day to maintain strength and mobility.
