Are you training for short-term results or for longevity?
How can we train to not just avoid the hit, but to actually take the hit?
And most importantly, why deadlift when you can just get butt implants?
Today, I'm honored to be here with some of my heroes, Juliet and Kelly Starrett are co-founders of the Ready State and co-authors of the new book Built to Move. After decades of working with pro athletes, Olympians and Navy Seals, mobility pioneers, Kelly and Juliet Starrett wrote their new book to focus on long-term physical wellbeing for the rest of us mere mortals.
As you'll hear on today's show, by rethinking your environment and working in easy, simple and enjoyable mobility exercises, we can train to be more durable now as well as later in life.
This is a fun one. On this show with Juliet and Kelly Starrett, we're chatting about:
Why deadlifts are better than butt implants, despite what Instagram might tell you
Why 5 to 10 minutes of daily mobility training compounds into huge wins over time
How the white water rapids that flipped Kelly's raft eventually led to true love
Why walking is prescribed to elite war fighters
How to make stretching a fun pair bonding or family activity
Why it's important to balance heavy lifts with mobility training
How to set up your living and working environment for longevity
