Podcasts about whole body barefoot

This week my guest is biomechanist Katy Bowman, author of twelve–count ‘em, twelve–books that explore how to improve health and boost well-being through movement, including the best-selling “Move Your DNA,” as well as her newest, “I Know I Should Exercise, But….” Her back catalog includes “My Perfect Movement Plan,” “Rethink Your Position,” “Movement Matters,” “Dynamic Aging,” “Grow Wild,” “Simple Steps to Foot Pain Relief,” “Diastasis Recti,” “Don't Just Sit There,” “Whole Body Barefoot,” and “Alignment Matters.” In fact, Katy has published so many books that she founded her own independent press, Uphill Books. She has also been named one of Maria Shriver's Architects of Change for her work to change the way we move and understand our need for movement, and is the founder of the movement education company Nutritious Movement, based in Washington state, where she lives. (This episode is a re-broadcast, in honor of the release of “I Know I Should Exercise, But…”) We covered: - How writing a book is really an exercise in processing everything she's learned for herself (in addition to being a way to communicate information) - Finding the kind of writing that feels like a downhill flow instead of an uphill slog - Matching your output to your phase of life - How to find the quiet you need to write in a noisy world - Balancing the necessity and allure of technology with a hunger for real-world, in person, nourishing experiences (what she calls “nutrient-dense” experiences) - How she works movement into her writing process - How walking boosts creativity - How she makes the most of her mornings (and why she doesn't have coffee until she's done this one thing each morning) Visit Katy at nutritiousmovement.com or follow her on Instagram @nutritiousmovement.

It is time for more Katy Bowman! Katy is one of my favorite educators in the health and fitness scene and her Nutritious Movement movement is so awesome and has such a great following (follow her on Instagram (@nutritiousmovement) to see her thoughtful commentary and the beautiful, Earth-based lifestyle she is living out there on the Washington peninsula). This is a very educational episode as Katy illustrates the importance of a movement-oriented lifestyle separate and distinct from one's fitness regimen—so integrating movement into all aspects of your day, not just for one designated block of time. Katy is also a book writing machine with a new book, My Perfect Movement Plan: The Move Your DNA All Day Workbook. This is an unusual book because it is formatted like a journal, asking you to participate in the process and further connect with the message. Instead of a simple Q&A about her book talking points, this episode is a thoughtful conversation about the impact movement and fitness can have on the human body. You will learn why athletic training can often be counterproductive to health, and how to integrate movement into your daily life in a graceful and sustainable way. It's not a huge task, (but it might be to get your butt to the gym and get in shape) and it has a massively beneficial impact on your health.  Katy Bowman, M.S. is a biomechanist, bestselling author, and founder of Nutritious Movement. She has written many books on the importance of a diverse movement diet including Move Your DNA, Rethink Your Position, Whole Body Barefoot, and her latest My Perfect Movement Plan: The Move Your DNA All Day Workbook. Follow her on Instagram @NutritiousMovement   TIMESTAMPS: How does one integrate movement into daily life? Even athletes need to get way better at having a more movement-oriented lifestyle. [00:51] Most casual endurance athletes are overdoing it to the extreme excess and the extreme detriment to their overall general health. [7:04] Cardio, strength, and flexibility should all be packaged together. [12:03] By watching the Paralympics, people will be inspired to improve their exercise habits. [13:34] People easily lose motivation like when they used COVID as an excuse of why they got out of shape. [18:32] Sometimes we are strong in only one narrow area of fitness rather than all around fitness. What movements are functional for an average human? [21:34] It really is quite easy to integrate movement into your lifestyle. Do squats in line at the taco truck, anyone? [27:48] The fitness industry is pervasive.  You are told you must buy exercise equipment and dietary supplements when maybe you can get what you need at home. [29:30] Psychologists are exploring the reasons or excuses people have for not being more active. [33:10] There seems to be a focus on athleticism rather than just recognize movement as important. [36:43] Living in the digital age, we find ourselves constantly entertained and connected which compromises movement. {48:19] Life is busy.  It is so important to walk, walk, walk.

Are You Walking Wrong  – The MOVEMENT Movement with Steven Sashen Episode 180 with Katy Bowman Bestselling author, speaker, and a leader in the Movement movement, biomechanist Katy Bowman is changing the way we move and think about our need for movement. Bowman teaches movement globally and speaks about sedentarism and movement ecology to academic and scientific audiences. Her work has been featured in diverse media including The Today Show, CBC Radio One, The Seattle Times, and Good Housekeeping. One of Maria Shriver's “Architects of Change” and an America Walks “Woman of the Walking Movement,” Bowman has worked with companies like Patagonia, Nike and Google as well as a wide range of non-profits and other communities, sharing her “move more, move more body parts, move more for what you need” message. Her movement education company, Nutritious Movement, is based in Washington State, where she lives with her family. Her book, the bestselling Move Your DNA, highlighted the importance of distinguishing between movement and exercise and has revolutionized the way movement is now being discussed. This book along with her others—Movement Matters, Dynamic Aging, Grow Wild, Simple Steps to Foot Pain Relief, Diastasis Recti, Don't Just Sit There, Whole Body Barefoot, and Alignment Matters—has been critically acclaimed and translated worldwide. Listen to this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement with Katy Bowman about the importance of moving correctly. Here are some of the beneficial topics covered on this week's show: - How there is a difference between exercise, physical activity, and movement, and why those must be delineated well. - Why people should learn how to carry their weight correctly throughout their body. - How coming from an exercise-centric understanding of movement can be limiting. - Why moving with other people keeps you committed to your movement journey. - How most people are not being taught to see their own shape when they are moving and why that is problematic.

This week we have a very special guest on the show, someone who has been a major influence on my perspective and my approach to movement personally and has really inspired a lot of the philosophy and practices that we promote here at TFC. Katy Bowman is a Biomechanist and is the bestselling author of 9 books, including Move Your DNA, Whole-Body Barefoot, Grow Wild, and her latest book Rethink Your Position which is actually due to launch tomorrow, Thursday 11th May. You can learn more about Katy's new book here. Katy has been a leading voice in the movement movement for over a decade and has pioneered the concept of Nutritious Movement, which is the name of her education company and is just frankly an amazing analogy to help us frame how movement affects all aspects of our health on a deep level. In fact one of our first episodes on this podcast was actually a whole episode dedicated to exploring the concept of movement nutrition and obviously draws on Katy's work heavily, and so that podcast would pair very well with this one - so if you're keen to check that out first or straight after, it is all the way down in Season 1 Episode 3. But throughout this episode, we discuss the broader concept of biomechanics, we delve into the difference between posture and alignment and explore how the way we move can influence how we feel and contribute to our experience of pain and injury. We also delve into some key topics from Katy's new book to help you build more awareness around your own alignment, movement and mindset. There's obviously a huge amount that we didn't get to cover, as the book goes into a really impressive amount of detail while still being really accessible to read and having read it back to front myself I can very honestly highly recommend it. So I really enjoyed this conversation with Katy, I got a lot out of it myself and I know you will too - if you do find value in it, please let us know by leaving us a review on your podcast app and help us spread the message by sharing it out with family and friends.

Todays episode is inspired by a conversation that comes up frequently in my core classes - feet! I nearly always start each of my classes with activation of the feet and a conscious alignment of the whole foot, ankle, knee and hip, right up to the core. Some people find this a frustrating distraction from just cracking on with the 'core' work  and struggle to see the subtle but significant impact that a misplaced foot has on our core. Today we unpick this! So, if you are have been inspired to learn more about my classes, then please drop me your contact details via www.FitFannyAdams.com/CLASSES so that I can keep you updated with when my next intake is!Katy Bowmen is an incredible bio-mechanist  and a truly fabulous author. I can't recommend this book highly enough: Whole Body Barefoot  - and if your like me and can't keep your eyes open as you turn a page, then its also narrated by the author.. and you get a fabulous bonus of some wonderful outtakes at the end, which nearly had me pull over, I was giggling so much! So, if you've had trouble with your feet/ knees, hips and core, and found this subject insightful and useful, then drop me a mail as I really love to hear from you - it puts such a big smile on face!  And don't forget to tell me what you want to hear more of or if you would like to guest in an episode! sarahjane@fitfannyadams.comHappy listening!Sarahjane x     

In this episode, Katy shares an old blog post from her first long trail walk in minimalist shoes (back in 2008) as an example of how we need to pay attention to what we wear on our feet as well as what we are putting those feet on while we walk. Katy says that having a blog is sort of like having a diary. But, since she doesn't have a journal or a diary, what she writes, you get to see, and in this case, revisit in podcast audio form.

Katy is sharing a portion of the talk—she recorded it so more of you could benefit from straightforward and joyful tips to get kids on the move. Many of these tips were mentioned in her latest book Grow Wild: The Whole-Child, Whole-Family, Nature-Rich Guide to Moving More, but she has expanded on each tip or trick in the hopes that you can turn these tips into the movement you've been looking for.We hope you enjoy this live recording of this outdoor playground talk, where there are trucks driving by, birds chirping, and we think a toddler walking off with Katy's microphone at one point, because... these are the sounds of life.To save 25% on the Simple Steps to Foot Pain Relief and Whole Body Barefoot audiobooks, go to nutritiousmovement.com/audiobooks during the entire month of April 2022.

People think that if they're exercising regularly, they've got their bases covered. But is there more to movement than just routine exercise? In this episode of The ABMP Podcast, Kristin and Darren sit down with biomechanist Katy Bowman to discuss the concept of “movement nutrition,” alignment concepts for massage therapists, different kinds of movements our bodies should be doing each day, and what movement exercises MTs could incorporate in their daily lives.

Today, we talk with folks from the MovNat Level 3 Certification in Glorietta, NM, September 2021, about fitness, the broader idea of human movement, nature, culture, and being a good human animal. Joining us is Nate Smith, Nate Amado, Rock Hancock, Scott Southworth, and Mason Maas. Enjoy!Nate Smith: "Nate was raised in the mountains of front range CO. With the state land as his backyard his interests were shaped quickly by the landscape and culture of his mountain community. Today he serves as a Sacred hunting guide, Movnat L3 instructor, lifestyle coach, and works part time in the outdoor industry to fuel his passion for skiing, rock climbing, and hunting. "Rock Hancock: "Brian 'Rock' Hancock believes that exercise and physical activity should celebrate the body's capabilities. As a Level 2 MovNat Certified Trainer and a Certified Health Coach, Rock has over 12 years experience working with various fitness backgrounds. He has assisted a range of clients, from the United States Marine Corps to those in corporate settings. He practices what he teaches. A look into his home would prove that a 2x4 sits in the living room for balance practice. His favorite natural movement skills are lifting, carrying, and jumping. In his free time, he loves cooking for his wife and sons."Scott Southworth: "Scott is an ACSM Certified Personal Trainer, MovNat Level 2 Trainer (working on Level 3!), and CrossFit Level 1 Trainer. in his gym practice, he specializes in weight loss, strength training, bodyweight training, and back and joint pain. He believes that our bodies are meant to be extensions of ourselves. He comes from a background in wrestling and freerunning where he used his body to explore and define who he was as a person. Since then, he's gotten involved in obstacle course races, endurance challenges, rock climbing, and a host of other activities. His training focuses on preparing for what life might throw at us. Whether that's sprinting up stairs so we don't miss a flight, helping a family member move into their new place, or playing a pickup game of basketball, he believes in a useful type of fitness. He's been involved in fitness for thirteen years and professionally training others for over a decade. Everyday he makes it his goal to better himself and grow as a trainer just as he asks his clients to better themselves and move toward their goals every day."Nate Amado: "Nate grew up a fairly weak and skinny kid, and having asthma didn't help -- running out of breath trying to keep up with friends was discouraging. He didn't feel strong, good at sports, or capable enough to defend himself (never mind others). He only played on a sports team once growing up, basketball in 3rd grade, and only made the free throws. It wasn't until his senior year in high school when he intently started pursuing new physical & mental challenges, starting out with high school wrestling. It was great, he won his first match or two, and got his ass handed to me for the rest of them. He loved it, and only wished he had started sooner. Later, when he discovered MovNat from the video "The Workout the World Forgot", he realized, 'THIS IS IT!' He felt that it was everything in one, the most complete system. He knew, right then and there, that this is what he wanted to do for the rest of his life. He went on to receive the MovNat Level 2 & Combatives Certifications (Mar & Jul 2016), The Human Path Scout Certification (Oct 2017), the Level 3 MovNat Certification (Oct 2017), a Purple Belt in BJJ (Dec 2017), the Primal Health Coaching Certification (Apr 2018), the MovNat Aquatics Certification (Sept 2018, officially earning all 5 MovNat certs and becoming a MovNat Master Trainer), the Gracie Combatives Belt Certification (twice - Jan & Jul 2020), and am currently on the path to becoming a certified Gracie Jiu Jitsu Instructor (July 2021), and a MeatRx Animal-Based Nutrition Coach (June 2021)."Mason Maas: "Mason is currently studying for a Doctorate in Acupuncture, He has a Masters in Acupuncture and a B.S. in Exercise and Sports Science. He is working on his MovNat Level 3 certification, but has earned his MovNat Level 2 Certification. He is also an NASM Master Trainer, a Corrective Exercise Specialist, and a Performance Enhancement Specialist."Contact Michael:1. Email: ccerppodcast@aol.com2. Website: http://www.goldams.com 3.

Our feet are an important part of our overall health and well-being. We've all experienced the discomfort of aching feet, but it's easy to ignore the warning signs of what might become a chronic problem. Foot discomfort can quickly spiral out of control to chronic pain and foot deformities that require surgery to correct. However, regular stretching, strengthening, and self-massage can keep our feet strong, healthy, and flexible. It can even reverse and correct deformities and conditions such as bunions, hammer toes, Morton's neuroma, and plantar fasciitis without surgery. It's true, and I have the feet to prove it. Start a regular program of foot care today, and save yourself from the agony of da feet. You'll be amazed at how good you'll feel and how much more energy you'll have when you get that spring in your step as you walk out into the world each day. Besides, your feet will thank you for it, and never let you down. Even when you're wearing stilettos.  "Whole Body Barefoot....Transitioning Well to Minimal Footwear" by Katy Bowman https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/ https://health.clevelandclinic.org/ https://fallriverbotanicals.com/products/geronimo-pain-cream

Katy Bowman is a biomechanist and the founder of Nutritious Movement. She is the author of several books including Move Your DNA, Whole Body Barefoot, and her most recent collection of essays, Movement Matters. In today’s conversation we’re talking about the ecology of movement. How does your movement affect not just your health but also humans everywhere, even ones you’ve never met, and how does it affect the health of the planet as a whole? We discuss the real impact of our sedentarism and our drive for convenience, and how movement can be a very profound and impactful form of activism.

Katy Bowman, MS and Kris Kaliebe, MD. With radical, science-based health directives, Katy Bowen, MS has taken the health-and-wellness world by storm with her bold “exercise is not movement” platform. A biomechanist by training and a problem-solver at heart, she has helped thousands reduce chronic pain, increase bone density, and improve metabolic health through better movement. The founder of Nutritious Movement, Katy is the bestselling author of multiple books. Diastasis Recti (2016), Whole Body Barefoot (2015), Don’t Just Sit There (2015), Move Your DNA (2014), Alignment Matters (2013), and Every Woman’s Guide to Foot Pain Relief (2011) have been sold and translated worldwide.

  Episode 24 of All About Fitness features author and founder of Nutritious Movement, Katy Bowman. This was a first for All About Fitness, the interview was scheduled through a publicist; and to be completely honest, before receiving her book, Move Your DNA, I had not heard of Katy Bowman, but the concepts discussed in her writing were familiar to me as a fitness educator who teaches that exercise is a function of movement. In a cool synchronicity, I interviewed Jen Sinkler before I interviewed Katy; when I was editing our podcast I realized that Jen had made a specific reference to Katy’s work.     Katy is a health and wellness educator who promotes the concept that rather than limiting ourselves to specific types of exercise that we should focus more on participating in all types of movement. We often think of physical activity as a construct of a specific activity like flexibility, cardio exercise or resistance training; through her blog, books and podcast - Katy Says, Katy helps people to focus on improving movement literacy by taking every opportunity to be as physically active as possible, which can greatly enhance the overall quality of life. A biomechanist by education, Katy uses scientific knowledge combined with real-world practicality to reshape the concept of physical activity into holistic, natural movements as opposed to a series of isolated, discrete joint motions. Katy’s books include: Move Your DNA, Whole Body Barefoot and the recently released Movement Matters.      In our conversation today we focus on why it is important to think about enhancing movement through ALL types of physical activity. Research shows that people who move throughout the day are healthier than people who are stuck in the same position. You’ll hear Katy use the term Captive Humans - to describe how the shape of our body becomes dictated by the limited scope of movements we perform throughout our daily lives. On this episode you'll learn why it’s more important to focus on complete movement literacy, why the modern concept of exercise may actually be limiting how much we move and what you can do to be more physically active throughout your day.      Please visit the sponsors of All About Fitness:   ActivMotion Bar Here is an example of the ActivMotion Bar in action   Terra Core by Vicore Fitness Use product code AAF to save 20% on the purchase of a Terra Core   SKLZ Fitness Products Use product code PM30 to save 30% on your next purchase Check out SKLZ products in action HERE   Connect with Pete McCall: Instagram: @PeteMcCall_fitness Twitter: @PeteMc_fitness pete@petemccallfitness.com
