Most of us spend our days in front of computers, on the phone, or in our cars, working, stressing, succeeding, and striving all while remaining seated and stationary.
This wouldn't be a problem if our ancestors were a sedentary species like pine trees, but unfortunately for us, our lineage comes from a dynamic group of animals who made their way through the world by employing a broad scope of movement patterns. Squatting, lunging, gripping, hanging, pressing, pulling, twisting, and sprinting, we are meant to be on the move and our biological machinery demands more than just a daily dose of gym time. To truly thrive, we need to reintroduce movement into our daily lives.
Today's show is part one of a two part series dedicated to the idea that movement is more than just exercise and features a conversation with world renowned movement expert Dr. Kelly Starrett.
Best known for his hit Mobility WOD YouTube channel and New York Times best-selling book "Becoming a Supple Leopard", Dr. Starrett has dedicated his life to fixing broken bodies.

In our conversation we discuss:
What it was like to grow up in a mountain town outside of Munich. The "aha" moment of satori he experienced while surfing. His early influences and mentors in the world of CrossFit and Weightlifting. What he learned by studying the movement traditions of martial arts, yoga, and gymnastics. Why we need to stop "fitnessing". How to cultivate physical competence in kids. The problems with physical education and how to fix them. What he thinks about the statement "sitting is the new smoking". How to sit correctly. Transitioning to a standing workstation. How you can join the Mobility WOD movement.
