Why Movement Is Superior To Exercise & How To Unlock Total Body Fitness - With Katy Bowman

In today’s culture, it’s easy to be sedentary. Most people have access to food, entertainment, and work without having to move much at all. And of course, a sedentary lifestyle has been shown to be linked to a whole host of chronic diseases. The question is: how do we become more active in a culture that encourages a sedentary lifestyle? Today’s guest, Katy Bowman is a biomechanist, bestselling author, and expert in all things movement, mobility, and functionality. She’s back on The Model Health Show for another engaging conversation on how (and why) to add more essential movement into your daily routine. In this conversation, we’re going to cover how our sedentary, convenience-based culture removes opportunities for movement, the difference between movement and exercise, and specific ways to improve your functionality—from your eyes to your feet. Katy has an insightful way of teaching these movement principles, and I know you’re going to take away something that changes the way you think and move. Enjoy! In this episode you’ll discover: An important distinction between movement and exercise. (12:52) Why reducing movement to its parts is like dissecting an apple. (15:44) The problem with outsourcing our movement for convenience. (17:58) Why labor can be an important category of movement. (19:28) The importance of the eye-brain connection and how to strengthen it. (25:31) How working on your spinal curvature can improve your outcomes as you age. (28:47) The role your feet play in whole body movement. (34:50) A simple stretch you can use to improve the functionality of your feet. (53:19) Why simply sitting on the floor can increase your mobility. (56:36) What we can learn from the way that kids move. (59:58) How to improve your physical workload in middle age. (1:01:45) Why we need to broaden our definition of exercise.
