We became less able to socialize appropriately, and some of us tossed etiquette out the airplane window. Hear what Dr. John Huber has to say about how to better deal with airline passengers.

ABOUT BUILT TO MOVE

NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER • Simple and proven physical practices designed to improve the way your body feels—less stiffness! fewer aches and pain!—and boost the overall quality of your life, no matter how you spend your time. From the innovators behind The Ready State and the movement bible Becoming a Supple Leopard.

“The definitive guide for building an all-around healthy and high-performing body and mind.” —Andrew Huberman, Professor of Neurobiology, Stanford University & Host of The Huberman Lab Podcast

After decades spent working with pro-athletes, Olympians, and Navy Seals, mobility pioneers Kelly and Juliet Starrett began thinking about the physical well-being of the rest of us. What makes a durable human? How do we continue to feel great and function well as we age? And how do we counteract the effects of technology-dependence, sedentary living, and other modern ways of life on our body’s natural need for activity? 

Have you ever thrown your back out doing something as seemingly harmless as picking up groceries?

Are you avoiding activities you once loved because of pain, injury, stiffness or fatigue? Have you witnessed the tragic deterioration of an elderly loved one’s life after a slip and fall?

The billion-dollar fitness industry has led us to believe that one hour of exercise a day is what it takes to sustain our bodies.

 Yet decades coaching some of the highest-performing individuals on the planet (Oscar winners, Navy SEALs, former presidents and Olympic athletes) have shown Dr. Kelly Starrett and Juliet Starrett (1.3 million followers across platforms) firsthand the essential physical practices that truly support elite performance.

 Contrary to popular belief, they discovered that the secret lies in what you do the other 23 hours of the day when you aren’t exercising.

 And it turns out that the practices that support elite performance are the very same practices that can help the rest of us—anyone at any age and any fitness level—achieve a durable, pain-free body.

 The best part? Exercise is extra credit, not a prerequisite!

Their #3 New York Times Best Seller, BUILT TO MOVE: The Ten Essential Habits to Help You Move Freely and Live Fully (Knopf; April 4, ’23) is the antidote to our sedentary lifestyle and unveils the little levers we can all pull throughout our busy days to maximize our body’s function and make a huge difference in how we feel and how successfully we age—starting right here, right now.  

 The book offers:

The first-ever set of objective, physical vital sign tests that reflect your current state of physical health and durability      

The sit-and-rise test that can predict your likely lifespan

The one-leg balance that indicates your risk of being seriously injured in a fall

The floor-sit and squat moves that could reduce your chance of arthritic hip pain by up to 90%

A first-aid kit for the inevitable aches and pains we all experience as humans that can be done on your living room floor. 

Expansive, anti-diet nutrition strategies that are designed to support tissue health and lean muscle mass—which in turn support healthy aging 

Intuitive ways to integrate more movement into your daily life and escape sedentary habits

Strategies to create a movement-rich environment in your home and workplace to support your brain and body’s need to move 

Breathing strategies designed to help restore range of motion and improve low back and neck pain

An evidence-based approach to solve the age-old problem of how to fall (and stay!) asleep (spoiler alert: it’s walking)

Quick and simple assessments to gauge progress and what needs improvement

BUILT TO MOVE is the first holistic systems approach to building a resilient, adaptable, healthy body that can do what you want it to do for as long you may live—whether that be gardening or a triathlon.

This book introduces readers to a set of simple principles and practices that can be done in just 10 minutes a day, leading to greater ease of movement, better health and a happier life doing whatever it is you love to do. Most of these practices are not things you’re going to hear or read about anywhere else.
