Move Naturally
This might be one of those ideas that seem strange but, intuitive once you think about it. The human body is designed to move and as 21st century humans, we have gotten away from different movements. Sure we run, lift weights and garden but, these are not enough to keep a body healthy. One of the things I have tried to do over the years is make exercise seem like play. Sprint to the nearest tree, jump off a park bench, climb a tree or a rock. We are human animals and get away from our need for a variety of movement. Watch a kid play, they run, climb, fall down and have fun. Maybe we have made exercise too rigid. When you are out on your next run or walk. Skip a few steps, climb up some playground equipment. Hang from a tree limb. Don't worry, no one is watching ;)
