Why Running *Isn't* The Best Way To Get Fit, How The Running Craze HARMED Fitness Enthusiasts & Why Walking Is Essential To Health & Longevity, With Mark Sisson.

The romanticized notion that humans are "born to run" has buoyed the so-called running boom of the past 50 years: well-intentioned fitness enthusiasts lacing up their cushioned shoes and plodding down roads and trails in pursuit of the runner's high, a trim physique, and the fountain of youth.

Unfortunately, "born to run" is a big, fat ruse—a marketing gimmick and a gross misappropriation of evolutionary biology's insights into Homo sapiens' genetic attributes for endurance. While any movement away from a sedentary-dominant lifestyle is laudable, the truth is that humans are actually born to walk, not run.

Ready to get fitter, leaner, and stronger than ever without the pain, suffering, and sacrifice of the typical approach to endurance training?
