My legs bend just fine. Problem is they often don't un-bend as well. For example, kneeling down is a piece of cake but getting up is another matter.
Yes, where I would have just quickly bent down and gotten something (off the floor, in a low cabinet, etc.) I now usually pause and scope out the situation to ensure recovery to vertical standing. I often find a stool to assist.
My situation is worsened by my wife's proclivity to store items in the kitchen on bottom shelves. She's short.

Old man test, make yourself do this every time you put socks on
I'm honestly not sure if I could have done that at age 18.

Bending and grabbing the socks... probably.

Putting the sock on... yeah, I think so.

Tying the shoe? I really doubt I'd have done a good job of that, at any age.

I started doing this habitually six months ago-51yo. It’s kinda like yoga. No one could do this without practice.

I don't have any boots with laces. I can still do everything else.
