Movement Lab
Welcome to the Movement Lab. After teaching Yoga for many years and studying different movement disciplines such as Circus, Acrobatics, Capoeira, Dance, and Chinese Martial arts, I realized that there was a need for a simple overview on something very complex: a guide uniting visual and verbal mediums designed to help people explore different poses, allowing them to try new shapes without getting overwhelmed. Thus came the Movement Lab. In this book you will find a variety of poses that vary in difficulty, requiring different strengths and ranges of motion. But if you pay close attention to the diagrams and specific instructions, my hope is that you will begin to step out of your comfort zone and face new challenges to find the potential of new movements in your body. The goal of this book is for you to get inspired, not for you to achieve instantaneous success. Use the pictures along with the instructions to get off your couch and explore the poses. Repetition is the mother of skill. Practice and you will receive the fruits of your labor. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I enjoyed creating it.

Whatever your fitness goals or preferences, this book is designed to help you pursue the health program that works for you. An inspirational speaker, author, and former Wall Street rainmaker, Jim Owen was 70 when he decided he had to get fit. Years of a chair-bound lifestyle were taking their toll.

Along the way he learned why cardio machines aren’t enough, what it takes to be “functionally fit” for daily life, and how to stay motivated. Today, Owen is in better shape than he was at 25, and he is a passionate evangelist for fitness as a way of life. He has proved that you don’t have to be powerless in the face of advancing years: if you make a commitment to “just move,” you can take charge of the aging process and make your coming years the best they can be.The book is divided into two sections, with the first providing fascinating information and the second showing step-by-step details of how to put the best fitness principles into practice.

Free+Style: Maximize Sport and Life Performance with Four Basic Movements
The New York Times bestseller! Everyone cares about physical performance and the fitness industry offers an infinite number of solutions to improve it. But who has the best solution and how do we know if and how it will work for us? After over 15 years of training as an elite gymnast and over a decade of coaching, Coach Carl Paoli offers a fresh philosophy on training by connecting movement styles to fit your specific purpose, while also giving you a simple framework for mastering the basics of any human movement. Freestyle: Maximize Your Sport and Life Performance with Four Basic Movements is an interactive way to learn how the body is designed to move through space and how to interact with our constantly changing surroundings. Using this framework and four basic movements, Paoli will help you maximize your efforts in sport and life, regardless of specialty. Despite Carl’s experience as an elite gymnast and a renowned CrossFit coach, this is not a book about gymnastics, CrossFit, or any specific fitness program. Rather, it is a unique take on how Carl studies and teaches human movement and how you can better understand how to move yourself. Carl is not going to teach you the specifics of a movement or sport; instead, he gives you a template that you can use to develop any specific movement. For example, instead of teaching you how to throw a baseball, this book teaches you a universal foundation that will help you further develop your pitching skills. Human movement is intuitive, but not always perfect. This book shows you how to: * Turn on and trust your intuition about movement * Use tools that help optimize imperfect movement * Tap into the universal movement patterns and progressions underlying all disciplines * Use Carl Paoli’s movement framework to create roadmaps for your physical success * Learn what being strong really means Freestyle is a practical manual to develop human movement regardless of your discipline. It is equally applicable to veteran athletes, weekend warriors, fitness enthusiasts, people trying to pick up a new sport, and people who are simply curious about improving their health. By developing your awareness and learning to see across other disciplines, you can tailor any training regimen to meet your unique goals.
The Practice of Natural Movement: Reclaim Power, Health, and Freedom
Erwan Le Corre, creator of the world-renowned fitness system MovNat, is on a mission to reintroduce natural movement to our modern lives with the most ancient movement skill set: walking, running, balancing, jumping, crawling, climbing, swimming, lifting, carrying, throwing, catching, and self-defense. Try to imagine an out-of-shape tiger stepping on an exercise machine to get a workout. It doesn’t make any sense, does it? Wild animals simply move the way nature intended, and they become powerful, healthy, and free in the process. So why should it be any different for us? We have become “zoo-humans,” separated from nature and living movement-impoverished, unnatural lifestyles. As a result, we are suffering physically, mentally, and spiritually. Exercise has become artificial and boring–a chore, if not a punishment. We are training parts of our bodies, not the whole, and we have lost our drive for movement. What we need is not a better understanding of exercise physiology or more variety in fitness programs and modalities. What we need is simplicity, meaning, purpose, inspiration, and enjoyment. We need to get back to natural movement. In The Practice of Natural Movement, Le Corre demonstrates our innate and versatile ability to perform practical and adaptable movements. With countless techniques and movement variations, as well as strategies for practicing anytime and anywhere, he will inspire you to build a naturally strong and flexible body and to form yourself anew into a mindful, skillful, and physically capable human being.

Just Move!: A New Approach to Fitness After 50
This step-by-step guide, written by a best-selling author and former Wall Street titan, provides all the information—and inspiration—you need to feel better, reduce aches and pains, and push back against aging with a personalized fitness program that’s right for you. Whatever your fitness goals or preferences, this book is designed to help you pursue the health program that works for you. An inspirational speaker, author, and former Wall Street rainmaker, Jim Owen was 70 when he decided he had to get fit. Years of a chair-bound lifestyle were taking their toll. Realizing that the old bodybuilding approach was no way to tackle the stiffness, weakness, and aches and pains that come with age, he set off on a journey of discovery and transformation. With help from the experts, he developed a common-sense, step-by-step program that can be tailored to any level of physical ability. Along the way he learned why cardio machines aren’t enough, what it takes to be “functionally fit” for daily life, and how to stay motivated. Today, Owen is in better shape than he was at 25, and he is a passionate evangelist for fitness as a way of life. He has proved that you don’t have to be powerless in the face of advancing years: if you make a commitment to “just move,” you can take charge of the aging process and make your coming years the best they can be.The book is divided into two sections, with the first providing fascinating information and the second showing step-by-step details of how to put the best fitness principles into practice.

Celebrity manual therapist and movement coach Aaron Alexander shows readers how posture and body alignment are powerful tools for building strength, achieving peak performance, reducing pain, and approaching the world with a new sense of confidence.

But in order to reap all those benefits, the body must be properly integrated. Celebrity movement coach and manual therapist Aaron Alexander offers a revolutionary approach to body alignment to build strength, reduce pain, and put you on a direct path to peak performance that is both fun and accessible. The Align Method centers on five daily optimizations that can be easily integrated into any workout, mindfulness practice, or daily life activity: Floor SittingHangingHip-HingingWalkingNose Breathing A truly aligned life isn’t limited to sweating in a gym or stretching in a yoga studio, and Alexander provides the fundamental principles to optimize your physical and mental process in any situation.

Overcoming Poor Posture: A Systematic Approach to Refining Your Posture for Health and Performance
MOVEMENTOvercoming Poor Posture: A Systematic Approach to Refining Your Posture for Health and Performance
With what seems like more than 78 million books about fixing your posture, so what what makes this one different? Three things: We bust the myths surrounding bad posture, good posture, pain, muscular tightness, and how to approach them from a scientific standpoint. Instead of a cookie-cutter routine, we’ll show you how to select the right exercises for your own needs. Since even the best routine is useless if you don’t actually do it, we’ll show you how to integrate better movement habits during the other 23.5 hours of the day. Written by two physical therapists who have worked with thousands of people around the world, Overcoming Poor Posture is based on one simple idea: there is no such thing as perfect posture. No two bodies are alike, and we’ll teach you how to find your own best alignment so you can live each day in health and comfort while performing your best in all the activities that matter to you. Instead of a painful issue to fix, you’ll learn to think of your postural alignment as a dynamic component of how you sit, stand, and move in your body. Inside, you’ll find: Practical, real-life explanations about the factors that have shaped your posture, the link between poor posture and pain, and how your posture impacts lifestyle. Clear pictures demonstrating exercises for alignment, mobility, strength, and motor patterning, all with detailed instructions. Tips for making a habit of better posture throughout your day. Instruction for choosing the right exercises and structuring a routine that fits your body and goals. An appendix with sample programs you can use to get started right away. Put it all together, and you’ve got a systematic approach to refining your posture for better health and performance in everything you do. If you’re already aware of many of the different exercises for posture, many of the exercises may be familiar to you. However, we teach and show you to put them together coherently with progression to work toward specific goals instead of just throwing them at your body hoping they will work.

Movement Lab
Welcome to the Movement Lab. After teaching Yoga for many years and studying different movement disciplines such as Circus, Acrobatics, Capoeira, Dance, and Chinese Martial arts, I realized that there was a need for a simple overview on something very complex: a guide uniting visual and verbal mediums designed to help people explore different poses, allowing them to try new shapes without getting overwhelmed. Thus came the Movement Lab. In this book you will find a variety of poses that vary in difficulty, requiring different strengths and ranges of motion. But if you pay close attention to the diagrams and specific instructions, my hope is that you will begin to step out of your comfort zone and face new challenges to find the potential of new movements in your body. The goal of this book is for you to get inspired, not for you to achieve instantaneous success. Use the pictures along with the instructions to get off your couch and explore the poses. Repetition is the mother of skill. Practice and you will receive the fruits of your labor. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I enjoyed creating it.

MOVEMENTOvercoming Poor Posture: A Systematic Approach to Refining Your Posture for Health and Performance
With what seems like more than 78 million books about fixing your posture, so what what makes this one different? Three things: We bust the myths surrounding bad posture, good posture, pain, muscular tightness, and how to approach them from a scientific standpoint. Instead of a cookie-cutter routine, we’ll show you how to select the right exercises for your own needs.

Written by two physical therapists who have worked with thousands of people around the world, Overcoming Poor Posture is based on one simple idea: there is no such thing as perfect posture. No two bodies are alike, and we’ll teach you how to find your own best alignment so you can live each day in health and comfort while performing your best in all the activities that matter to you. Instead of a painful issue to fix, you’ll learn to think of your postural alignment as a dynamic component of how you sit, stand, and move in your body. Inside, you’ll find: Practical, real-life explanations about the factors that have shaped your posture, the link between poor posture and pain, and how your posture impacts lifestyle. Clear pictures demonstrating exercises for alignment, mobility, strength, and motor patterning, all with detailed instructions. Tips for making a habit of better posture throughout your day. Instruction for choosing the right exercises and structuring a routine that fits your body and goals. An appendix with sample programs you can use to get started right away. Put it all together, and you’ve got a systematic approach to refining your posture for better health and performance in everything you do. If you’re already aware of many of the different exercises for posture, many of the exercises may be familiar to you. However, we teach and show you to put them together coherently with progression to work toward specific goals instead of just throwing them at your body hoping they will work.
