Today’s book: Move Your DNA by Katy Bowman—a paradigm-shifting guide to understanding that movement isn’t just about workouts—it’s about how you use your body all day, every day.
Here’s your 1-minute summary:
- Exercise ≠ movement. A one-hour workout doesn’t undo 10 hours of sitting. Movement should be woven throughout your day.
- Movement is a nutrient. Just like vitamins, your body needs varied movements to thrive—across joints, ranges, and environments.
- Your environment shapes your form. Chairs, shoes, and flat floors can restrict natural movement patterns. Rewild your space.
- Alignment matters. How you move affects how forces are distributed through your tissues. Smart form = resilient body.
- Small changes compound. Walking more, squatting daily, and sitting on the floor are micro-movements that radically upgrade your health over time.
You’re not just built to move—you’re built by how you move. What nutrient-dense movement will you practice today?
