The Power of a Daily Mobility Routine: Create an Effective Routine for a Healthier Life. (Training Tuesday)
Manage episode 399581615 series 2966367
Did you know that the ability to get up off the ground without using your hands is highly predictive of how long you’re going to live? In a study of over 2000 individuals, those who were able to get up off the ground without assistance (even without using their own hands) the longer they were likely to live.
Similarly, it’s been found that those cultures who spend more time on the ground exhibit lower rates of hip arthritis. Those with Chinese heritage for example, who sleep on the floor and rarely use chairs, have 80 to 90% less reported cases. And that’s not to mention general pain. According to the Health Policy Institute at Georgetown University, 65 million Americans report a recent episode of back pain. Some 16 million adults have chronic back aches.
We live in a world of chairs and cars. We drive to the gym to exercise and log more screen time than Bill Gates or Steve Jobs could have ever imagined.
Without actively improving our mobility with daily mobilization, we will lose it and experience the consequences. My life rule #2: If you don’t use it, you will lose it.
