Getting Up, Getting Down

A  recent study  has shown that our  ability to sit down on the floor  and then get back up may be an indicator of how long we’re going to live. Middle-aged and elderly people who need to use both hands and knees to get up and down are almost seven times more likely to die within six years, compared to those who can spring up and down without support.  While the ratio of muscle power to body weight is the most important factor in such ability, there are other very relevant aspects to it. Aside from strength-it is mobility, balance, and coordination-that also participate very significantly in the transition from standing to sitting. ...

Move With A Purpose: Resurrecting The Warrior Ethos

For what purpose do you train? It’s a simple question, but intention is everything. Going to a gym to “exercise” – to move and stress your body in distinct ways to maintain or improve its physical state – is a very new concept in human history. Further, playing a sport or participating in modern outdoor recreation to accomplish said goal is just as recent a phenomenon. In the not too distant past, movement had a purpose that transcended wellness, vanity, and friendly competition. ... Read more here:  https://www.movnat.com/move-purpose-resurrecting-warrior-ethos/

THE BEST AND WORST MOVEMENT YOU CAN DO

QUICK AND DIRTY DETAILS: To a varying degree, we are all designed to be able to run efficiently In the absence of the ability to perform basic natural tasks, running is likely highly inefficient at best; and reinforcing the breakdown of your entire body at worst Video: Breathing and positioning tutorial; Ground movement for restoration Program: Beginner’s “ramp up” program for healthy Movnatters Enhance your running routine for maximum benefits Running. I used to hate it. Correction: I used to abhor it. When I was a young athlete, I avoided it like a staph infection because anything longer than a sprint wasn’t among my natural strengths…I’m much more naturally “wired” for explosive movements. And as I reached my late twenties, I outright couldn’t even run a casual mile without pain in one or more joints. ... Read more here:  https://www.movnat.com/running/

The History Of Physical Fitness

Fitness, as we know it today, seems to be a relatively modern invention – something that started vaguely in the 70s with jogging and Jazzercise. But physical exercise obviously goes back much further than that, to a time where people wouldn’t have thought of it as working out, but rather a way of life. ...
